"Also, in all 3 telescopes, results was same, and in APO refractors, we used mirror diagonals, and with both APOs we were able to reach focus with T2 mirror diagonal system, without need of using any GPC, barlow, Powermate etc, which is absolutely great!"


If you did not use the GPC with the prism binoviewers then you should expect them to show some color.  One of the roles of the GPC is to correct the inherent color errors in a prism-based system.
