LED lighting, mixing COBs with QB

Indoor
#1

So I am currently running 3 HLG 288 v2 rspec quantum boards, on a custom heatsink. Its producing about 320 watts, 40k+lumens at canopy height. Dont have a par meter, yet.

I have the opportunity to get several (8) COBs at a very good price, Citizens clu038. So I was considering adding 6 of them to the current fixture with their own driver. However I know that cobs tend to penetrate deeper into the canopy while quantum boards have a wider spread but not as much penetrating.

So I was wondering if any one had combined the 2 into 1 fixture and if so how they compensated for the difference.
