yes, these can be used as surround/rear speakers. Their proportions mean they are designed to sit on the floor, but, if you have space to do that, they will likely sound as good or better than most "surround" speakers that are smaller and designed for wall or shelf placement....and these smaller speakers are often lacking in bass. With more and more bass being recorded in the surround channels of movies and TV shows, I say you can't go wrong with the largest speaker you can fit into the rear speaker location, provided it is of good quality. These are a steal for the price, and, require very little amp power for clean sound.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This will work however they have smaller shelve speakers that work for rear and might save $, these are more for your front speakers, unless your bumping with a reciever that is over 145 watt per channel. But for rear they might be over powerful for the purpose. If you have the $ sure y not.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes, but why? Surround speakers are supposed to be mounted up above the viewer at least 2 feet. Since the surround signal is ambient & background mostly, I'd buy a simple, small & cheap bookshelf speaker. Then mount them as Dolby labs suggests. These tower speakers aren't meant for rear speakers. ~ peace
