Robert,
Those KK Widescan III's, are an excellent eyepiece in slow scopes like your Tak mewlon and C9.25. Unfortunately they are poor performers in scopes faster than about F7 or F8. In fact they are no better than the cheap chinese/taiwanese eyepieces in a fast dob.
The 2" versions are also more than $275 I think, they used to be almost $400 12 months ago. The 1.25" versions used to sell for just under $300.
Actually I just checked:-

$399-00 for the 2" and $299-00 for the 1.25" versions.
