Audition Spendor D7 and A7 in/near Texas (Houston)

I'm looking at a new set of speakers and would love to audition the Spendor D7 and A7, however for the life of me I can't find a dealer that has them both. The two dealers I know of near Houston is GCaudio on San Antonio which only has the D7, and then Wilson Audio in Louisiana that only has the classic line. Any ideas on how I could audition both within a 6 hour drive?

Not a single Spendor owner in Texas can shed some light?

@kren0006 Thanks very much for your detailed thoughts, it's helpful to hear from someone with first hand experience. What amplifier did you use when comparing the two? In your 6 months quest to hear everything you can, did you hear Proac or Tektons? If so, I'm really interested in how you thought they compared.

I'm also surprised that Dynaudio was so close in the comparison, I have had the Focus 380s before and they sounded box in and constrained, maybe it was just that one model. Which model impressed you on the Dynaudio side?
