I have a few speakers and a receiver that is couple years old. What is the best way of setting up a nice theater system with the speakers I have below.


I have a sub woofer made by MITSUBISHI - M-SUB200 Power Supply 120V - 60Hz

I have a few speakers and a receiver that is couple years old. What is the best way of setting up a nice theater system with the speakers I have below.Kind of a vague question, since obviously what the room allows has to be taken into consideration. With no info on that, the best I can offer is some pics from Dolby's web site.

Typically 5.1 is adequate unless you have multiple rows of seating or a large room. I'd stick with the Phase Tech and ditch the Mits speakers. Looks like you're lacking a matching center channel speaker...
