Reminds of when I was 15, back in 1970, and went to pick up my Kustom 100 at the music store. They had a giant Ampeg all tube head with two of those 8x10 cabinets hooked up. He turned on the amp, which took a minute to warm up (you could hear the fans spinning up), and man, when he played that thing, the air coming out of those speakers almost knocked me over. It left quite an impression.

As to your question. Seems to me that cab is calling out for the SVT 7 Pro. Enjoy!!!

between the 7 Pro and the D800, tone wise, I think that the 7 Pro would be the better fit for the cab. but I don't trust the 7 Pro to stay running.. on the other hand.. the D800 for a class D amp is truly awesome..
That's my only concern .. Is the horror stories of it not working.. But I'm hoping those issues were sorted out and fixed
