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!

JM says that all its speakers should sound the same within a product line, but that each successively larger room needs a successively larger model. They actually give optimal room dimensions on the website.

Has it been anyone's experiences that the larger models sound the same as smaller models when used in proportionally larger rooms?
