No other mechanical device needed (no more fans) you say you have a six inch duct running from the room that supplys the fresh air to the grow room , Im saying that you need to increase the size of that duct at least double the size , add another duct 10 inch would be ok ,or just increase duct you have to 12 inch , you are starving your fans for air that is all that is wrong. let them have more Air so the 560 cfm fans can do what they are designed to do witch is move 560 cubic ft of air per min. this is why guys burn there fans out buy not letting them breeeeth,you go around all day sucking air through a straw and see how long you last. more air to room = lower temps.

I was having that issue until I put one of those 3 speed circular "turbo fan" out the ceiling of my closet. Who know how much air it pushes, but it's ridiculous and lowered my temps by 7-10. IDK if it will work for you, but it's something to consider
