If I would use five identical bookshelf speakers (2 fronts, center and two surrounds..plus a sub) would I lose out not having dedicated center and surround designs? I was wondering if given the frequency response I might be losing out on some of the higher end designed into dedicated center and surrounds. Specs below:

Type Bass Reflex

Max. Power 100 W

Frequency Response 55 Hz-35 Hz

Woofer 5 1/4" Cone x 2

Tweeter 1" Dome

Depends on the dispersion of the bookhself and how far off axis people are sitting. My first center was a matching bookshelf and did a fine job. Ascend Acoustic has two of it's three CC as matching bookshelves turned on side with the logo repositioned accordingly.

It is also, if economically feasible, definitely the way to go for multi-channel music. Sadly, I couldn't go this way (and meet my own criteria for two channel performance) but someday.
