Actually you will get tonal differences between identical speakers because of placement differences in almost every situation. The reason identical speakers are recommended for up front for HT (all around for music) when possible is to help minimize this by not adding difference between the speakers to the mix which in turn gets amplified by the room.

That’s not to say there are ever differences between channels on the soundtrack but those mastering the sound tracks usually try to prevent that.
