I would recommend googling for Megrez 88 reviews. I have heard some average reports of their optical quality. I ended up going with the Megrez 90 APO but that's quite a big scope to put on the LX200. Megrez 80 is a better size and probably better optical quality than the Megrez 88.
My 2c worth.

Thanks guys, I might take a little longer, do a little more thinking/research and spend alittle more. Those Stellarvue 90mm C/Fibre triplet raptors that weigh only 6lbs do look nice. I have a 3D weight system installed so this will help with balance.
