TEC 140 vs Celstron 91/4

I have a Traveler and a Celestron 91/4 SCT that I purchased from Company Seven. I use an AP600 mount. The 9 1/4 has outstanding optics and I enjoy it very much but it can be a pain to collimate and you have the cool down time issue. The question I have is to whether a TEC 140 would give me the same or better views, be carried easly on the AP 600 mount and would this justify the extra cost? I have never looked through a TEC 140 so I have no way to compare images.

Appreciate your thoughts on this.

Thanks,
Bob
