I have had a pair of Sopra No2's since they first came out, and if I had the choice you'd been presented, I'd let them ship the No3's in a heartbeat.
When I bought my No2's, being "empty nesters" my wife recommended that I move my system down from the living room to the family room, not sure if such a move is a choice for you, if it is, would be "good" in Mrs. Moonhawk's eyes, but that worked for us.
BTW, when you finally get the Fathoms integrated with the Sopra's, you may believe that you've "died and gone to heaven"...I have a pair of F113V2's with my Sopra's...
Enjoy those new speakers! BTW, they will just sound better and better over time, mine really "settled down" after about six months.
