Speakers choice with Octave v80se

I am currently using Octave v80se which have KT150x4 with Super Black Box. (https://octave.de/en/htdocs/verstaerker/v80se.php) My listening area is 10ft x 18ft and  I would like to purchase new speaker. The below are my choices
1. Wilson Audio SabrinaX
2. Avalon PM1
3. Focal Sopra N2
4. Others
Any comments are appreciated

Try Gauder Akustik Vescova / Cassiano.
They pair very well.

I love Sabrina X and I finally gave up Octave although it is superior sound.  Recently I bought 211 tube amp to match Sabrina X and it goes perfect match and bass is more solid that brings more layers.  Unlike Octave v80se with KT150, 211 tube amp is more laid back and less punch that make me feel more comfortable and enjoy music especially listening jazz

Which amp did you end up with? Not clear on what the 211 tube is. Lampizator? I am about to upgrade into SabX and looking hard at the Octave V70 Class A or the 80 SE. As you know it's not an easy speaker to drive so I'd be interested to know what you are using to successfully drive yours. 

 

Thanks!
