Adding speakers to an existing home theater system
Ken,
The output is really low on systems like that, then when you turn them up you get hot. I'd use just another basic stereo receiver...maybe Onkyo for about $150ish should work much better.
Make sure you consider a speaker selector, that`s what does the impedance matching for all the speakers to run at the same time. See here for more.
Take a look at these speakers for a good bang for the buck. There's a volume deal for 5 pairs that make that a great deal.

I have a samsung home theatre system 150watt. I would like to add 6 small wall or ceiling speakers to this system for music only. not the home theatre. they tell me I can`t do that because it will overheat. Do you have any reasons why this can`t be done? or do you sell a very small amplifier that I can place in between.
