Octave v70se OR v80se


Hello Everyone!
I recently bought the amazing Dynaudio Contour 20 speakers and am about to purchase the Octave int amp. I have listened to the v70se but have also heard great things about the v80se model (have not heard v80se in person). So far this is the best integrated amp I have heard in this price range!

My question is should I get the v70se WITH a black box and call it a day OR just get the v80se? The price difference between v70se and v80se is pretty significant.

I have a 20x25 foot room and I listen to all kinds of music. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

Octave makes supremely good amps. I had the 40 on loan for a few weeks with my KEF Ref One and it was the best I ever heard them. Heck the 40 is a beast and will dig your Dyns.
