I currently have a 5.1 setup and am considering a switch to 7.1 since the room is quite large, but need some advice. I can't seem to match my existing surrounds (Energy ESAT). Should I sell them and buy 4 matching surrounds or can I add 2 different speakers as the mid surrounds? I expect that most will say that they should all match, but money is a factor, the ESAT's are paid for, and to be honest I don't hear very much sound (volume) from the backs anyway.
Tell me, is quality really that important in the surrounds?
