Wilson Audio Yvette vs Sasha 2

Thanks in advance for input. 
My room: 14 x 21 w/ 10'ceilings.  Speakers on the 14' wall.  
Pre/Power: ARC Ref 3 and Ref 75 (KT 150s)
Transparent Super cables/connects
Lumin T1
Current speakers: Sophia 2. 
Looking for advice on the differences between Sasha 2 and Yvette from anyone who has compared. 
I'm guessing the top end is similar, bass is a bit better on Sasha, or at least lower reaching..? 
Big question is on upper bass and midrange integration and texture - to me the magic area.  Is one better than the other?  I've heard Yvette may integrate better and provide more real texture. 
*My room is dedicated, and adjustable, so I can make the Yvettes align.
Thanks!

The Sabrina is very nice, but the Yvette is so Sasha-like and in a different league. When we pivoted 90 degrees in the showroom to move from the Sabrina the smiles all around were like winning the lottery with the Yvettes. They were so close to my Sasha's it was spooky. Other than the deeper bass with the second woofer of the Sasha, the Yvette is fantastic. If it were not for my ego, I'd "settle" for Yvettes going forward and save some coin.

Worth a listen if you can. Hi Fi Buys in Nashville has these in their showroom.

If I had a non-serious listening area in the house and could swing it, my wife would approve of the Sabrinas for casual listening. Seal of approval for either but she fully supports pursuit of the DAW. Yeah, me!

If I were in the market, based on my experience and the trajectory of W/A, I would blind buy the Yvettes.  No need to audition for me. If room size was right, I would go for them.
