Hey all, just bought a house and it's is pre wired for surround audio. There are 6 speakers locations, 3 in the forepart and 3 in the back of the living room. I'one thousand a noob to all things like environs sound. What kind of organization do the wires suggest I should get? 6.1? v.1? I don't want to leave whatsoever wires exposed or just encompass them upward. I want to use what'southward provided since it seems pretty convenient. Any suggestions on system would exist peachy. Price point would be entry to middle tier, not looking for high end at the moment.

That sounds like a six.1 arrangement. Though you tin ever just non employ the middle dorsum location and do a classic v.1 setup instead.
Bluntly nearly surround sound is either 5.ane or 7.1, they kind of skipped over 6.1. It won't break anything to practise a 6.1 setup. Yous can of course ever do a five.1 setup and add that 6th speaker afterwards, and so long as your A/V tin handle a 6.ane setup. Just note that since 6.1 was skipped over that means your options are really five.one or 7.one A/V receivers. 5.1 can never go higher than v speakers but vii.1 tin do 7 or less speakers.
But a side note y'all practice not desire to buy a system in a box (something that comes with the receiver and all the speakers in i package) I tin guarantee you to almost 100% certainty that they will not let you utilise the prewirred connections your business firm has. They also are generally the worst quality.
So y'all'll need to buy your parts separately; receiver,iv speakers, ane heart speaker and a bass if you want. My suggestion is if you don't desire to spend a bunch of money correct now and then get a good received $250-500 and just ii left/correct speakers ($100-200 ea) for a uncomplicated 2.0 setup. Will still be worlds improve than whatever sound you Goggle box can put out on its own. Then you can but add together more than speakers over time every bit you feel similar it.
I don't take a recommendation for a receiver. But I exercise like the speakers Polk audio makes, their prices are decent too.
Oh also be 100% about those speaker wires. About just use copper wire that y'all twist around the connexion pole. Merely some brands utilize these plugs that are custom to their make simply.

Where are the wires coming out in referece to where the TV and couch could be. If front speakers are correct by where the Television set is then it is likley setup for 5.1 (there is no such things as half-dozen.1 for movie home theater setup). If front speakers are not correct by telly simply a trivial closer to couch area then it could be for seven.one or 5.1.2 (the .2 is for dolby atmos for celing speakers) As far every bit iii in the rear that is kind of weird, is 1 the cables a coax/rca cable as that would exist for a sub

That sounds like a 6.1 system. Though y'all can always just not use the center back location and do a archetype v.1 setup instead.
Frankly virtually surround audio is either 5.1 or seven.1, they kind of skipped over 6.1. It won't break anything to exercise a 6.ane setup. You tin can of course always practise a 5.1 setup and add that 6th speaker after, and so long as your A/V can handle a 6.1 setup. Merely note that since 6.1 was skipped over that ways your options are really v.one or seven.one A/V receivers. 5.i can never go higher than 5 speakers but vii.1 can practise 7 or less speakers.
Just a side annotation you practice non want to buy a system in a box (something that comes with the receiver and all the speakers in 1 package) I can guarantee you to almost 100% certainty that they will non permit you lot use the prewirred connections your house has. They also are generally the worst quality.
So y'all'll need to buy your parts separately; receiver,iv speakers, 1 center speaker and a bass if you desire. My suggestion is if you lot don't desire to spend a agglomeration of money correct now then get a good received $250-500 and but ii left/correct speakers ($100-200 ea) for a simple 2.0 setup. Will nonetheless be worlds improve than any sound you TV can put out on its own. Then yous can merely add together more speakers over time as you lot feel like it.
I don't have a recommendation for a receiver. Only I practise like the speakers Polk sound makes, their prices are decent too.
Oh also be 100% nigh those speaker wires. Most just use copper wire that yous twist effectually the connection pole. But some brands use these plugs that are custom to their make only.

Simply an update to questions..the room is large and square-ish. The 3 front speakers are about 9-ten high on Wall where the tv is. The rear 3 are on another wall roughly aforementioned elevation I the back of the room. All wires look to be for speakers because I doubt anyone would want a sub x feet off the basis above their heads lol..wish I could post pics
