Hello there. I recently purchased an ARD from Tenebraex for my PST 2-10x.
When using it, I am very surprised at how much the image is affected. I don’t mind seeing the honeycomb at 2x. The quality at any and all magnification from 3-10x becomes a lot hazier.
Is that a normal experience that others have had? I know Tenebraex is the best in the business, so really it has me questioning other ARDs I’ve tried.
I almost think the ARDs that don’t affect user image are doing less than advertised. Or maybe Tenebraex is just using slightly older manufacturing processes than the modern 3D printed options from 100 Concepts, Defense Distributors, MK Machining, etc.
Either way, I’m considering returning the ARD because it seems strange to buy an optic for high glass quality, only to intentionally degrade the image via an accessory.
