Should I select a lighter/brighter shade of Emax veneers due to translucency?

kateward1
I am due to get 8 eMax porcelain veneers on top teeth. I am getting my teeth whitened prior to this to lighten my teeth as much as possible. I have read a number of reviews about emax veneers saying that they have not ended up looking as white or bright as they thought they would. My question is whether due to the translucency of the emax veneers should or could a brighter shade be selected to account for this and the result be less bright than the same in an opaque veneer?
