G'day Trevor
I would probably try and save a bit more and buy the WO FLT132 f/7 Triplet APO with 4" focuser ($6500.00 from andrews). At least wait until Alex and Paul have done some real testing (i.e show us your pics) on the GSO RC's before going down that path. The Meade tubes are good but very heavy (13 - 14kg bare). How much more could you load on the EQ6 and still have accurate tracking at that focal length? They are also F10 which means a far greater challenge in guiding unless you use a focal reducer (F6.3 is about right) which brings me back to my first comment. Go the apo.
