Important notes re GSO mirrors...

GSO mirrors are guaranteed  diffraction limited. They achieve the theoretical limits of resolution for their respective surface areas.

GSO Newtonian Dobsonian telescopes have BK7 type glass paraboloidal mirrors and are precision figured and polished to an absolutely outstanding 1/12 (or better) surface wave specification!

I have witnessed this exacting and time consuming process numerous times, along with the confirming surface wave error printouts, in my numerous visits to the GSO factory in Taiwan. Yes, most competitors don't visit any overseas factories...

The high industry standard for mirror surface wave specification is 1/10 wave, yet very, very few telescope manufacturers regularly achieve it.

Due to continuing and dedicated quality improvements at GSO, more optical accessories from GSO are now achieving an amazing 1/16 surface wave spec.!
Guaranteed minimum of 1/12 surface wave error specification.
We know of no other manufacturer achieving such high quality levels at similar pricing...
