Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Home Theater upgrading my HT system with dissimilar speakers

So, while I’m waiting for my new M80HP speakers to arrive for my music only system, I’m looking at slowly upgrading my HT setup – currently with a Pioneer Elite VSX-32 receiver driving Definitive Tech pc60 speakers.

My M80’s will replace a couple of very old Klipsch Heresy speakers, so here’s my thought:

I put the Klipsch’s in the HT setup as the left and right fronts, purchase a refurb’d Axiom VP150 for the centre, use the existing DT centre as the rear centre, and pair up the old left & right DT fronts with the left and right DT rears (in parallel) for the left and right rears. And stay with my existing subs.

So, is this a brain dead idea or a workable interim solution? (and even more important, will this fry my receiver, with the different impedance loads)

Thanks in advance for any advice!
