Focal Aria 936 vs 926 bass response


I am looking at a couple of Focal Aria speakers in the same model line, and trying to decide on which will work best in my room. The listening area is 14 x 25 x 8.5, but it opens up into another room of the same size (open concept with a half wall between them). Listening distance is 8-9 feet. I have listened to the 936 and liked it, but am a little concerned that it could be too much bass for my room. Also, I have very limited placement options where these are going. My dealer does not have the 926 in stock so I have not listened to it; I assume it will sound very similar to the 936, but with less bass, so I’m wondering if I can get away with the 926. The 926 is also a little smaller so it has better WAF. There is a return policy at the dealer but ideally I’d like to make the right choice initially.

The frequency response of the speakers is as follows. How much bass will I be missing in practical terms between the two? I know the replies may well be “nobody can tell until you get them into YOUR room” but I thought I’d throw it out for comment anyway.

Focal Aria 936:
Frequency response: (+/- 3dB) 39Hz - 28kHz
Low frequency point: 6 dB 32Hz
Sensitivity: (2.83V / 1m) 92dB
Nominal impedance: 8 Ohms

Focal Aria 926:
Frequency response: (+/- 3dB) 45Hz - 28kHz
Low frequency point: 6 dB 37Hz
Sensitivity: (2.83V / 1m) 91.5dB
Nominal impedance: 8 Ohms

I'm considering the Focal Aria 936s with the Moon ACE. The ACE is 50wpc at 8 ohms. I've heard that the 936s require a lot of power to drive them well and sound good, despite their their high sensitivity of 92db. Can anyone tell me whether the Moon ACE will be a good paring with the 936s, and whether the 936s will sound good and reach their full potential with this amp?
One other thing. I'm also looking at the KEF R-500s with the Moon ACE. Anyone have an opinion of these speakers generally and specifically with the ACE? How do they compare with the Focal Aria 936s?
The 936 is a much more musical speaker than the KEF.  I highly recommend listening to a pair.  The R500 isn’t a bad speaker at all, just a little less open holographic and musical.  I’d also check out a Peachtree Nova 300 to power the 936.  Excellent pairing.
contuzzi, I've been leaning toward your thoughts, as well. Unfortunately the 936s are $1,4000.00 more than the R500s, but you get what you pay for. :-) As to the Peachtree Nova 300, I'll definitely give it a try, although I'll be mainly streaming, so I'm looking for an all in one, like the Moon ACE. Thanks, again.
