Newer stereo no speakers want to use my older ones. The older speakers are round my new are rectangular. How can I use my older surround speakers

The cosmetic of the speakers don't matter.

All that matter are:

1. The driving amplifier must be able to handle speaker ohm rating or less. 4 ohms speakers can be used by amp having 2-4 ohms ratings but not amp with 8 ohms rating.

2. Speakers watt rating should be in the ballpark of amp's watt rating. Too weak amp will sound weak. Too powerful amp and you like to turn things up, will blow speakers.
