Unless I'm confused - your talking about adding way too many speakers. If you've already got 5.1 setup, you can't just go adding 4 more speakers and get 7.1 lol

Generally you can either run 7.1 by having the Fronts, Center, Sub and Rears (your standard 5.1 setup). The 7.1 gets you sides, OR front surrounds / highs.

Some people I believe have wired both, but they may be using 9 or 11 channel systems (or might even just be switching between the setups in the config?)

So, without knowing what your true intentions are - I just wanted to point out that (based on your statement) you're looking to add 2 too many speakers.
