Replacing only one speaker

Would it be OK to replace a single Klipsch KS-525-THX surround sound speaker with a Klipsch Reference Premiere RP-250S speaker?

 

I bought my KS-525-THX speakers separately from my other five speakers from a dealer going out of business.  One has gone bad.  I submitted a support request but I am still waiting.  The snag I may be in is my wife so far has found the receipt for the original 5, but not for the KS-525-THX speakers.

One dealer has the Reference Premiere RP-250S on sale as a discontinued product.  If Klipsch refuses to repair/replace KS-525-THX I want to jump before all the RP-250S's are sold.  The RP-250S is on par with my other speakers, it would not be a step down.

 

Thank you for your answers.

Initially I would say no. I feel you would be getting some major timbre matching problems if you bought a rp250s. Hopefully, klipsch will do you a solid and repair the one you have. Don't worry about waiting for a reply on that request. Did so once myself and they took about a week to reply. 

 

I do know that there is this one guy on this forum everyone refers to for buying klipsch speakers, but I just can't seem to remember the name... sorry! In any case, you could have a look at the garage sale tab and see if you find one there.
