A possible upgrade to JM Lab Electra 926s-advice?

Hi folks,

I currently own a pair of JM Lab 906s, and have the opportunity to trade them in at 90% value for a pair of 926s. I've augmented my 906s with a Martin Logan Depth, but my room is very difficult to work with, and is plaguing me with incoherency issues. I'm wondering whether it's worth the upgrade to more full-range 926s. Any opinions or advice?

I really like the smooth character that JM Labs impart into the music, but I think the Utopia series is obscenely expensive--so, I've definitively excluded these from my thinking.

Thanks much!

For the money, the 926s are fantastic. The 927s are probably better but they ought to be for nearly twice the price!!

I just love my 926 and will keep them a long time. I am amazed at how they reveal ANY changes I make in my system. I have been able to fine tune my sound and now feel comfortable laying off on the "upgrades." Very impressive speakers in every way. Arthur
