Ok, 9 channels :


   *    *    *
        TV

   *   YOU   *


   *    *    *

And let's not forget the ninth ninth one, which is on the ceiling, right 
above you.  If you want to go for 10, you can start putting 'em in the 
floor to have sub-terranean sounds too!  Hell, we could just double up on 
the 9 I drew out, and have the same layout, but 9 on the floor, 9 on the 
ceiling.
