I don't know what they're stand for. All my search resaults are shopping info. Who can explain this and tell me what's different between them?

2.1: 2 channel audio with an additional subwoofer channel (3 speakers in total). Typically source material isn't in 2.1 format, it's in 2.0 (or plain old stereo) The low frequencies are sent to the subwoofer by a filter or sound processor in an amplifier
5.1: 5 channel audio with an additional subwoofer channel (typical for surround sound)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surround has a whole lot more combinations.

A 2.1 system is
basically a pair of
stereo speakers and
a powered subwoofer.
A 5.1 system is 5 speakers
(2 front, a center channel, and
2 rear surround speakers).

Basically put 2.1 means 2 speakers + 1 subwoofer and 5.1 means 5 speakers + 1 subwoofer. Hope this helps.

Sam's answer is right.
Speaker placement must be same as the mic was placed at the time of recording.
