I already have Monitor 70 Series II for the fronts, A CS2 for the center and am currently running some generic speakers as surrounds. I Saw that R300 speakers are on sale for $50 am wondering if they will voice match my current speakers ? Even if they are close I will probably buy them.
Any answers will help thank you
Luke

    WELCOME :razz:My opinion only is that rears and sides are far less important than the front 3, which should be matched. For rears I see no problems with non-matching fronts as long as the impedance is matched with your AVR. good luck

    +1

    The Monitor 30's will be the perfect match as well as the 40's.

    Welcome to Club Polk!

    Mike1947 has you covered above. NO problem throwing a couple R300s back there. I doubt you'll be able to even tell a difference!
