For surround sound, tonal balance is important. Speakers from different manufacturers may have a different tone, making transitions from speaker to speaker more obvious, thus diminishing the illusion the soundtrack is trying to create.

Having speakers from one manufacturer and a sub from a different manufacturer doesn't matter.

But having different manufacturers for front, centre and rear would not be a great idea.
