Ok, I have KEF Q15 as mains an NHT AC1 for a center and thinking of getting KEF Coda7s for rears because they're so cheap and I like the soft sound of KEF speakers. Thoughts on how important timbre matching is? Here's my impression. On DPL while watching tv I can tell the center NHT and KEFs don't match but I like the sharpness of the NHT center. In DD dvds I can really tell a difference. The KEFs are plenty loud for my small apartment.Thoughts?
Really depends on how, um, politically correct you need to be.
IMHO there is nothing wrong with going with whatever you got
and if it really bothers you in the long run, then changing
the speakers. This stuff's supposed to be fun, after all.
Thanks for saying this is *supposed to be fun*. People I know get into home theater because it seems fun to them.Anyway, based on the way we perceive sounds from behind or to the side (there was a good article in Absolute Sound several issues ago) you may be happy for quite a while going with your existing speakers. After a minor amount of fiddling around, I did fine using my modified Spica TC50 speakers as rears with B&W 802 Series 3 mains.
Maybe I am just not as critical with theater, but I can't get that worked up about the sound beyond a certain point -- don't get me started on stereo however ;-).
Good Responses. Thanks for the feedback!
