Left and right is more than sufficient. If you want a center channel you'll need a surround receiver with pre out, A/D converters and you'll have to use the speakers in optical direct mode. A bit/lot of extra expense depending on the surround solution you choose if going for LCR. There's a lot of good reading about Phantom and surround here, @njaiswal is the guru.
