Yes and No. I use dipoles for my movie surrounds (7.1, so sides and rears) and have for many many years (Logic7 supported 7.1 almost 20 yrs ago). I also use direct radiators, identical full-range drivers to my fronts, and use them in an ITU 5.1 setup strictly for hirez surround music listening (both sets of surrounds, i.e all six of them, are never on at the same time, only 4 dipoles or 2 music surrounds). I did this for a couple reasons, the main being that I didn't want to cannibalize the 7.1 setup when i got the later 5.1 hirez itch, and I wanted my music surrounds at the ITU 20 degree position (plus I had the luxury of having the room, and a dedicated space). As i said, the dipole decision was 20 yrs ago and for movies, even later Dolby Digital discrete and now the newer lossless truly full-range TrueHD and DTS HD MA, the more diffuse nature of the dipoles doesn't hurt me for movies, especially for the folks in the second row. They retain a surround feel. However, depending how you have the setup, and depending on what percentage of listening is surround music I would go with direct radiators. I mean, you're gonna place them side and rear anyway so the envelopment you'd get with dipoles are taken care of by the sheer number of speakers placed in the rear semicircle, and for music you could turn off the sides or place them slightly behind absolute 90 degree side.
I wouldn't sweat it. The dipoles you've narrowed down to are nice speakers. I'd be cognizant of timbre and tonal matching the fronts too, though. Don't choose a speaker set that doesn't tonally match the Salks.
