Hi, first time poster here and a novice at technically understanding how to properly set up a stereo. I pulled out my 20-year old home stereo system out of storage and set it up in my basement. I have a Sony STR DE975 receiver, JBL 310 L&R speakers , JBL S-Center speaker and Rockville sub-woofer up in front. I have a Sony TV connected to it and the TV and music sounds pretty good at the front and middle of the room. I do have two JBL N24 bookshelf speakers connected in the rear of the room wired to the surround speaker terminals on the receiver. When playing music, the music coming out the N24s is lower than I want. If possible, I want to have the best of both worlds - I want to walk around the room and feel the power of the music I hear in the front and middle of the room to be in the rear of the room. I also want to use the rear speakers for surround sound when watching movies.
Is that achievable? Is the solution to get bigger tower speakers put them in the rear (in place of the N24s)? or is the limitation because the N24s are wired to the Surround sound terminals of the receiver and are limited to whatever the receiver is pumping out on those terminals? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
