I have a set of the coloured filters and they stay in the bottom of my box of goodies most times. I was told I had to have them but I really don't think they do much except to cut down the light getting to your eye. After saying that, I do use them on the moon, combined with a moon filter, if I need to cut down the excess light.
My vote is to save your money.
The theory of opposing coloured filters to highlight coloured features is great BUT only if you have a lot of light to play with in the beginning. If you have a significantly larger scope than mine then it may work OK but I still think a good eyepiece is a better investment.
