While the 16”GSO sound too good to be true I would not even consider purchasing one!!!!!!!!!!!!!x100. While GSO make top quality 8” 10” & 12” scopes, my money (and your money) would be better spent on purchasing either an Obsession or Discovery. If you are serious about owning a large aperture Dobsonian such as me (I am planning to own an 18” Obsession one day) you would be better to save up and buy yourself a scope that will give you a life time of enjoyment such as an Obsession instead of a scope (16” GSO) that will more than likely yield only half decent viewing and give you hours of frustration. And like anything half decent it will end up sitting in the corner of the shed collecting dust and you will be sitting inside, wishing that you had spent a little more on a top quality large aperture Dobsonian.
Please!!!!!!!! no more talk about this scope until we see real photo of the prototype, until then I have heard enough.
