no it won't sidhu-i agree with the first answer you will in fact make things worse and in the really serious scenario could in fact fry your output circuits-your system is what is called in home theatre parly a "5.1"-five sattellites and a subwoofer. your system is not designed to incorperate extra speakers-adding extra speakers could not only result in damage to your unit because you are adding extra load to the amp. it would end up sounding like two tin cans and a peice of string-if the bugdet can spare it go for an a/v receiver (a 6.1/7.1) with seperate speakers-these set-ups go up to unlimited wattage (my own is 1700 watts) so if the wallet can handle it there is plenty for you to play with....nb further to answer by xenonaudio-i couldn't agree more-the finest amp i ever heard was my old quad two-two which was a stereo amp. while this amp was of the highest quality there is no way it could match the performance of the multichannel amp i have today-no dis-respect but regardless of quality there is no way a two channel amp can do the same job as a good quality 5.1/6.1/7.1 av receiver-and this is what home theatre is all about-multichannel surround sound.

okay, first off....10w???? sounds like you need a whole new system. find out what wattage your speakers are capable of and get a receiver that can push out up to that amount. More power = better sound, period. Second, there are receivers out that will do 6.1 or 7.1 descrete channels, but since 98% of DVDs and including HDTV is 5.1, there isn't a need for that kind of system now. Impressive, but useless. Like the other guy said, you just spread the sound between one or two more channels and it loses depth. Though, as I mentioned in the beginning, start with a new system where you can get about 100w/channel and you'll be much happier.

NO! even if you did, your amp wouldn't handle it, and the dvd's mostly wouldn't either. Save up and get a good cheap system. I may cop abuse for this, but if you're reasonably happy with your current system, splurge on a decent av receiver, then buy some speakers from op shops etc. get some old, big ones. Later, buy some nice new ones. You won't regret it.

Quality over quantity first. For example, a high performance 2-channel audio system will outperform an average HTIB system.

Nope, in fact it will make it worse.
Unless you have an amplifier that can process more chanels, adding speakers will just blur the image that you would get from 1 speaker per chanel

More bad speakers will just make more bad sound.
Better to save up to buy better speakers.

It would smother the sound from the subwoofer. And it would be less crisp. So dont waste your time.
