To properly hear Surround and Digital Dolby 5.1, not only you need a complete set of speakers, but an amplifier or receiver, known as Home Theater System, that not only have 5 amps, but also the needed Signal Decoding capabilities. It would be inadequate and leading to poor results, to try to use your stereo speakers.
