Depends on several things: your ears, what sort of sound you like, your pocket book (how much are you willing to spend just for the "H" of it, and such like. If the speakers are already mounted in baffles of some sort you are off and running. Connect them all in parallel and sprinkle them around your listening room. You may end up with something that sounds quite nice - you may not. But it can be fun to try different arrangements. Try bouncing some off walls (the sound, not the speaker). If you are very lucky you could end up with something like the Bose system that won against Consumer Reports in court. Lots of people like that kind of sound. Lots don't. If you lack the time, money, ear, or exploring spirit, then follow the previous advice. Don't play them loud for fear of overloading your amp. If you do find something you like then you can look into whether the amp can drive them as is or you will have to get more amp.
