I have stillpoints on all my sources and use a PurePower 2000 for powering regeration along with upgraded power cords (shunyata and PS Audio). I also had stillpoints on my V1's which I will swap over to the V2's. For color, I went with "Azzuro California" (which is apparently a 2010 Ferrari California color; its a light blue that looks really cool!) with black grills and black hardware.
As for differences between the V1's and V2's, I may not be a good source for this info quite yet. Let me explain why.... I have always preferred silk dome tweeters as the alternatives always seemed harsh to me, but using stillpoints on the speakers, and source components along with upgraded power cords, took a lot of the "edge" off my V1's. I demo'd the V2's in store but to be completely honest, my overall components and setup at home was superior to the listening environment at the dealer. Having said this, I was able to compare the V2's to Alexx and I liked the V2's better, so thats saying a lot!

Sounds like your happy, and a good color choice.
Mechanically isolating gear and playing with cables creates amazing results. On isolating the speakers, did you listen to them set up following their instruction with spikes?
