This comes from a experienced audiophile who answered a question in Amazon:
I'd recommend a 6.4 for a 5.1 or a 8.4 for a 7.1 or a 7.2.
Let's consider the 6.4 system
6 x SP-FS52 (three sets) and 2 x SW-8Mk2 (4 channels) - you can substitute the VTF-15H for the SW-8Mk2 and run it from the subwoofer out of the electronics; but the overall sound, although much deeper in response, will be slightly disjoint in imagining.
Using SW-8Mk2
Use an SP-FS52 for each of the front left, front right, rear left, and rear right speakers. Use two of the SP-FS52 for the center (one placed on each side of the screen). Put the two SP-FS52 (without stands or grills, but with a three-point pad set-up) per side on a single SW-8Mk2. Angle in the two SP-FS52s until the adjacent edges are touching. Bi-wire the amp for the front and center speakers to put one connection to the satellites and one to the corresponding channel of the SW-8Mk2 subwoofer (run the center SP-FS52 speakers in series). Carefully calibrate the center channel and subwoofers settings "
Using VTF-15H - a 6.2 system
Use an SP-FS52 for each of the front left, front right, rear left, and rear right speakers. Use two of the SP-FS52 for the center (one placed on each side of the screen). Put the two SP-FS52 (with stands, but without the grills) per side, next to each other. Bi-wire the amp for the front speakers to put one connection to the satellites and one to the corresponding channel of the VTF-15H subwoofer. Run regular speaker connections to the center SP-FS52 speakers (connect them in series). Carefully calibrate the center channel and subwoofers settings "
Seems very interesting!!
