Surround Sound System

With the goal being a 5.0 surround sound system, you will probably want to go with a set of speakers rather than purchasing them separately or in pairs. You will have 6 speakers in all, one in each corner of the room (roughly), one speaker front and center either on or just below the television and one subwoofer to handle the bass. You'll want to ensure that the speakers are rated to handle the amount of power put out by the amplifier in your receiver. That way, you can enjoy full, rich surround sound without stressing your speakers and possibly damaging them.
