Take a look at the Kunming united website and you will see what I mean.

Hi Ernie,
I'm enjoying this thread and will be interested to see what you get!
One important point about Stellarvue: they are not "just" rebranded Kunming scopes. They thoroughly test and align the lenses they receive and have a minimum Strehl of 0.95. Anything less is sent back. So they may look the same as 'standard" Kunming scopes, but they're not. My SV80ED performs better than all my previous William Optics doublet scopes, which include three 80mm and the very nice Megrez 90.
Looks like you're after a triplet or I'd add my recommendation for the SV110ED. Stellarvue is making a few more then discontinuing all their doublets in favour of triplets only.
Good luck with your decision.
Morton
