I'm wiring additional pairs of speakers for the kitchen and the deck outdoors. What are you all using for speaker switching? I'm torn between the cheaper resistor-loaded switches and the more expensive selectors that provide constant impedance through autoformer transformers. I really like the Niles SVL-4 with separate volume controls for each speaker pair, but it's nearly half the cost of my 1050. I'm wondering if I'm better off just using something like the Sima SSW-4 for about $40. I'd like to know what my fellow 1050 owners are using.

I am in the same boat...

What did you end up doing?

Anybody got any ideas? I have the Sima selector on order but I must admit I am
concerned about its capabilities. At $40.00 it won't be a catastrophe if I have to can it and go for something else.
