You are both right. The one question related to whether different subs from the Tekton speakers would be ok. I then took it further and was wondering if it was a concern if I had different surrounds from the front three. If I could add one more question it would be can I get away with only one Texton 18" sub in the front middle of the room? The room will be 17'W x 22'L x 10-12' H. The only way I can put the 2 mammoth Texton subs would be on each side of the center speaker.
Speakers - Theater Room Dilemma
I would appreciate feedback on whether there is an issue if I mix speaker brands in my 7.2 theater room. My original plan was to go with Tekton Pendragon theater room speakers. They are extremely large. Unfortunately, the Subwoofers are so large that I can't place it in the back of my room. My plan was to have two subwoofers in the center of the room; one in the front and one in the rear. Consequently, I would have to go with a different brand subwoofer and they would probably be built in the wall. So, I am thinking about having the Tekton Pendragon towers and the Pendragon center for the front of my theater room and going with Paradigm, Dali or Focal surround in wall speakers and subwoofers. I will be watching sports and movies in the theater room and also two channel stereo music. To me the most important speakers are the front three. I could go with Tekton surrounds but they are big also and I would have to build them into the wall. Thoughts?
