I have used both the AP155 and the AP160 and I like the images produced with the AP155 better. Now, maybe I am biased because I own the AP155 but I really think it is the better scope. In fact, I will venture to say that whether with its 155TCC making it a lovely f/5.4, or at its native f/7, it is the ultimate imaging platform (4 inch focuser, 4" flattener). That is just me, but it is one amazing instrument. I really like the Honders -- I have serial number 001 -- with it's perfectly corrected huge FOV but if I was forced to sell either the AP155 or the Honders I'd sell the Honders. Let's pray that day never comes!!!
