Going off other Campfire member recommendations, and if you are not stuck to the 30mm class objectives, I would also consider Tract Toric binos. I have several of their scopes (Toric, Tekoa and Turion) and think VERY highly of the brand.

Not sure if you are looking at Meopta MeoStars or MeoPros...I have a set of 8x32 MeoPros and my only complaint is the fast / touchy focus wheel. Love everything else about them. Just something to be aware of if these are on your radar.

I have a set of pre-SV Swaro EL 8.5x42's that I think highly of but I have not had to deal with any warranty issues.

I have no experience with the GPO's.

If I were buying another pair of quality binos, I would be leaning towards the Meo's or Tract.
