Monitor Audio RX6 vs. Mission v63

[admin_exported]

I have the following setup:

Yamaha RX-A2010

Front: Mission v63

Centre: Monitor Audio RX

Surround: Monitor Audio RX-FX

Subwoofer: Monitor Audio RSW12

I am happy with my current setup but was thinking of upgrading the Mission v63 to Monitor Audio RX6. Is the upgrade worth? Will it make a difference in a good way? Are the RX6 superior to the v63?

I'm not sure if they will be superior but a general rule of thumb is that all front 3 speakers should be from the same manufacturer/range.

Yes, you'll get a far more consistent tone across the front soundstage if all three are from the same range.

The Mission v63 I have for about 7 years now, and were my second pair of speakers(I owned before them for a brief period a pair of M34i wich did not please me) . I am very attached to them and very fond of the backplate wich says "Made in England". That is why I have this dilemma... What if I find the sound of the RX6 less appealing. In my oppinion both the v63 and the rx6 are on the same level when it comes to price. If I would exchange the v63 with a pair of Monitor Audio GX200, I am pretty sure that I could not go wrong, but with the RX6 I am not that sure. Correct me if I am wrong.
