mixing memory brands/types

So I have 2x2 A-Data 2000x memory @1520Mhz rated at 1.6-1.8v, but with the current prices I would like to add some memory.

I'm not going to buy the same kit since its expensive compared to others.
So my question is:

Can I buy other brands and mix and do they need to be 1.6v+ to be compatible with my current memory?

I'm looking at different 2x4 kits rated 1600Mhz 1.65V
Kingston hyperX blu
Corsair XMS3

or if 1.5v is okay
Corsair Vengeance
 
Mixing brands is usually no problem.
When you start mixing speeds, timings and especially voltage ratings, you're asking for conflicts.
