In general, youwant to work TOWARD five identical spekaers driven by five identical amplifier channels, mostly impossible when you are starting out. The overall goal is to surround the listener/viewers in an acoustic bubble. Further, the speakers should all be equi-distant from the center of the "sweet spot" and should be set at identical levels (75 db is the usual reference), preferably with a sound level meter (most good listeners can get within 1/2 db by ear).
The ultimate goal is the best "suspension of disbelief" that you can achieve.Having said all that, I think you are off to a good start but keep the above in mind as your system and expertise progresses. And keep an eye out for good used equipment.
Have fun and good luck.
