STARSCREAM Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 The system I'm about to pull the trigger on is: ICON xf-48 front left/front right ICON xl-23 center channel RS-42 pair for side surrounds/pair for back surrounds Would the RS-42's be good to use for the surrounds with these fronts? There is no ICON surround speaker, only a bookshelf that can be used as the surround. I figured the bipole wide dispersion surrouns would be better.

colterphoto1 Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 There will undoubtedly be a timbre mismatch, but that is not so critical front -rear as it is across the front. You raise a very good point that it may be preferable to have a purpose-built surround speaker for side duty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
