    It all depends on how good of a deal you can get for the A9's. I liked the a9's much better, from top to bottom. Also look at the lsi 15's, I've seen them lately go for around $800 and is also a step up from the A7's.

    I don't think changing your front speakers is going to make a drastic change in your HT experience. You already have a very nice setup. If music was your main concern, then maybe. In HT, though, I'd look elsewhere in your system if you've got a real upgrade bug.
