It depends on the surround sound system used. The common surround system used is call 5.1 and consists of five speakers: Three in front and two on each sides.
In a 5.1 system, the speakers should be beside or behind you, ideally at ear level or above. In a 7.1 system, the left and right speakers should be beside you, and the read surrounds (or surround) behind you.
Any mini system can use external surround sound speakers just fine.
It comes with five surround sound speakers and a subwoofer.

The home sound system should have multiple HDMI inputs. It must be able to send amplified audio to at least five speakers. Also be aware about the system if you wan't the 5.1 you have three speakers, two surround speakers and a subwoofer. In 7.1 you only get four surround speakers.
The minimum number of satellite speakers needed for a wireless surround sound system is three. Traditionally there are two to the sides of the seating area, and one directly in front.
There are no surround modes that quickly turn off the subwoofer, center channel and surround back speakers, but leave the surround speakers (side) speakers on. You will need to go into the System Setup -> Sp 2. In 3.0p -> Speaker Setup menu to select Center Speaker 'None', Surround Speaker ('Large' or 'Small'), Surround Back Speaker 'None' and Subwoofer 'No'. If you have a subwoofer and want sound to come out of the all of the speakers when you are listening to a non-surround source such as a CD, use the 5CH/7CH Stereo DSP simulation.
A good surround sound can have just one good speaker if you buy the right one. But an ideal system may have at least 2-4 nice speakers.
