Neon - thanks. Too expensivo.
Tom - I'll need some help figuring out how to wire your solution. Can I run install two speaker distribution panels (running 2 lead wires off of each amp channel) or what that create huge impedence problems. I was already planning on installing 3 impedence volume knobs (1 kitchen, 1 living, 1 outdoor).
John - I had thought about that solution. It certainly is the easiest wiring job. My only concern is that some dope mucks around with the "All Stereo" setting (like activating PLII or something), resulting in some weird sounds coming from various parts of the house. Inevitably, I will be getting calls wondering why the outdoor speakers are only playing echoey sounding background vocals... But it's a viable solution on a budget, for sure. I wonder if I could get a receiver that could I could lock into All stereo mode, or get a receiver with a default mode that always switches to all stereo when the device is turned on.
Hmm
