Focal reducers for ACF optics

Hello everyone

I'm looking to reduce the focal ratio of my LX200-ACF (8" f/10), however I've read that many reducers won't work in conjunction with the coma free optics.

Is there a particular brand or range that I should be looking at if I wanted to reduce the focal ratio to f/6 or lower?

The AP 0.67f reducer is great on Meade ACF, worked a treat on mine.
