I'm pretty sure if one of the leading authorities on sound reproduction research (Dr. Floyd Toole) decided to go through the expense and effort of hanging 150lbs., full sized speakers on his wall they probably do actually sound better than their bookshelf counterparts. And yes, he does integrate them with subs so they are not running full range even though they are one of the true full range floorstanding speakers that don't cost more than a house. Like I said, the only benefit to bookshelf speakers is if you need to actually put them on a bookshelf or wall.
That said I don't think those JBLs would be "better."
I don't own the 580s...I do have the 590s...and while those produce a nice wall of sound that the Polks couldn't..they would do so at the loss of that silky smooth detail from the Polk's tweeter.

It's the perfect option for a center channel to park between two 590s!
I ended up with the 580s as Front L/R myself after a whole bunch of trial and error and I could not be happier with them. I actually wanted to go all the way down from 590s to 570s for Front L/R in my space because my Front L/R are forced into a bit more of a corner than I would prefer, but the 570s were not available at the time I was in the market so I went from 590 to 580 in my home theater and moved the 530s from my desk to my surrounds in there. It is a fairly large space, 14x20 but the seating is about 12 feet from the screen and 8 feet of space behind and the 580s are perfect. 590s were way too much. I just couldn't do it. I would probably recommend a sub in a home theater for 580s, I have two, just to take some load off them but I also use that room for music listening with the 580s in stereo and I am not joking when I say the low end shakes the entire house at reference volumes and three of the four walls in that room are solid concrete.
If I were creating a home theater from scratch right now, I would probably have three 590s across the front, move the 580s to surrounds and the 530s to rears and then in-ceiling Atmos above. Some day.
If you have to nano-partically break it down just to make a half-witted point maybe stop and get some help?
Fact is the name of the game isn't aesthetics or matching jack. It's about how a speaker (wait for it) sounds, what it outputs with such metrics like: frequency response, spl and dsp (if any)
Hmm let me see what do I need to find out what a speaker "sounds" like…….
Wait for it …….. for me, my ears 😳
Do I need to know what the "measurements" of its "frequency response, spl and dsp" to "actually" know……. For me NO.
Would I even be able to distinguish and point out "frequency response, spl and dsp" by just listening….. I know I can't and I don't know anyone that can.
So out of curiosity what are your mixed brand front left & right speakers specifically?

If you can't do the 580, I would recommend the 530 if not, the 520C.

Then again, it's been a long time since I've been active in the audio scene. Ever since I've completed my room, I've prioritized actually enjoying it rather than keeping up with the latest and greatest in speaker offerings. Now I just research electronics when new features are added that pique my interest. Next up will be jumping into the Atmos bandwagon. It's not looking good for my bank account though.
