2 in the back (one on the left and the other on the right) for backround action. 2 in the front( one on the right and one on the left) for up-close action. and the rest on top of your TV and the other on the ground.
the 1st link below is the layout i am trying to explain (just ignore the 2 OO on the right bottom corner)
the 2nd link is a more detailed layout!!

Lots of good advice here already. If they are all the same speaker make and model you might experiment. If not, choose the best set and use them exclusively. Voicing changes dramatically from one type of speaker to the next. Mixing never achieves good results.
In a THX or ITU-R setup (for Dolby digital or DTS):
Center: above or below the TV
Front Left and Right: about even with the center, at least 4 feet away in both directions.
Surround Left and Right: approximately even with your ears or slightly behind, to the left and right of your seating area.
Putting speakers behind you is no longer used unless you have a 7.1 receiver. Sound engineers at the studios now plan for the surround speakers to be left and right of you.
If all of your speakers are the same, Yamaha makes a great sounding 11.1 system (RX-Z11) but it's pretty expensive. $6000.00, and you'd have to buy one more speaker.

2 sets? 1 set should be enough. unless you have a receiver powerful enough to output to 11.1 then 7.1 is your best bet.
your sub (.1)
2 front L/R (2.1)
1 directly in front (Center) (3.1)
2 rear L/R (5.1)
2 directly L/R (7.1)
1 rear (center) (8.1)
never seen a 11.1 setup but seen receivers in audiophile magazines.

so they surround the room
