Focal Scala Utopia V1 vs Competition in 2017

Hi

I have received a very tempting offer from our dealer of a traded in Scala Utopia V1 for 10k USD. Knowing that it has been released 9 years ago. 

How is the Scala V1 doing compared to the existing speaker market for maximum of 10k? Is the Sopra considered more advanced since it's relatively newer with the recent Focal research development? 

I really don't know if this is a steal bargain or getting rid of a not so good Utopia model. 

Please help

@kent3888 what did you end up doing?  I had Scala v1 some years ago, and let them go.  Wish I hadn't.  I had Sopra 2s last year, but they couldn't deliver the scale, drama, impact, or depth (move enough air) in my room - compared to the Scala v1 or Wilson Sophia - to satisfy.  
My room is 14x21' w 10' ceilings.  
I'm wondering if I should try the Sopra 3s or get Scala v1 (or v2) again. 
No place to hear the Sopra 3s... 
Anyone w/ further comparison thoughts would be appreciated.
