Yes, and if you plan on doing that be sure to pick up the Sony Core Center Speaker too if you have a 5.1 speaker setup. That's what I did and so now the front left, center, and right speakers are the Sony Cores in my Yamaha 5.1 Home Theater System (YHT-399UBL).
The reason you want the center and front left/right speakers to match is that with 5.1 or 7.1 digital surround sound when sound effects transition in the front from left/right/center, you want the transitions to be smooth and without one speaker sounding noticeably different from another.
