Yes this will work just fine. I don't think you'll get a "gross mismatch" between the front and rear speakers as long as you setup the speakers correctly & adjust the volume levels for each speaker as required for the listening position.If you are listening to DVD-A or SACD then you may be aware of the amplifier differences, but if you are interested in home theater use only for the surround speakers, I don't think you will hear a difference as the effects sent to the rear speakers aren't full range and usually aren't sustained sounds.
Follow Ups:
Xenon,DVD-A and SACD should be routing to the side speakers, which are powered by the Krell amplifiers.
The rear speakers should only come into play during movies.
Regards,
You are correct. I have a 5.1 setup with sides (that are really located at the rear because - well, that's where I have wall space), & in visualizing the setup I called the sides "rear" - well you get the point? My mis-typing due to my personal HT layout.
