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

I'm own a pair of Sopra 2 currently driver by Naim Nac282 and NAP250DR, I also considering to take up an offer by a dealer for a pair of used Scala V2 for approx 15k usd. Should I grab hold of the upgrade to Scala V2, but I'll be stuck with the 80WPC NAP250DR for another year or two.
