I am planning on 3 extra rooms, besides my theater room, each with 2 speakers (total 4 rooms). I also plan to add volume controls in each room.

To be sure I understand, how would I connect the amp so that I can play surround in theater room and stereo in other rooms? Tape out to audio in on amp will give me stereo only through the amp, correct? I suppose I could buy a used stereo to use as an amp if I wanted to save some money.

Any suggestions on an inexpensive, 2-channel amp that I could run 3-4 zones with? What is the minimum/optimal size amp I should shop for (suppose I should go a little over what is needed at this time).

Thanks guys for all this help....I love learning this stuff....and I appreciate the knowledge you are sharing !
