I too have caught Bass on a 6 wt. and it was fine. I think the main reason for a specialty rod, would be because of the sized of flies, and the vegetation where bass are found.
Personally, I wouldn't go with a 9'er for that reason. Redington (Predator) and Sage both make specialty Bass rods. They are like 7'11" long. They are rated by Grain, like spey rods. I will be getting the Bluegill rod someday, sweet stick and I like the length.
