Combine Golds with Silver/White?

[Jean-Marie]

I have been listening and demonstrated a stereo pair with one white and one silver. That was before the gold time.

Spark and dialog were smart enough to volume match the two and therefore the pair was behaving like a pair of whites.

I suspect the difference is more important with the golds, not because of the power difference but because of the different tweeter, but I'm honestly not sure it would be an issue for front vs back given that in many systems, be back speakers are often different (often less expensive) than the front speakers.

Let's not forget that the majority of the information is coming from the front and the back are mostly about surround and atmosphere.

My two cents,
