Help Please


Ok-

I have decided to buy an integrated. I can spend +/-$1000. The problem is I am installing a pair of in-ceiling speakers to connect to my system in my dining room (in addition to my "real speakers" - paradigm studio 100 v2), and although I have received some great suggestions on amps, none of them have hookups for more than 1 pair of speakers (and I am at a loss to find any decent integrated in my price range that has this so far). I realize I can buy a "splitter," but I presume this degrades the sound (or I would guess I can buy a high-end splitter which will cost a ton just to have music in my dining room). Suggestions? Any help is greatly appreciated.

By the way, I am currently having a hard time finding the used Creek as well. If you know of one, please let me know. Thanks.
I have read several reviews on the c372, and not all were as ringing. I am looking at the Arcam A90 (used is hard to find, new too expensive), and the Creek 4340SE. Any other suggestions?
An NAD C372 integrated amp has two sets of speaker outputs. Have you considered one of them?
Why not get a tiny system for the dining-room. Like a small NAD amp, Sony CD player and a set of KEF Q1 speakers?

Look for a receiver that has multi-zone capability. I am assuming that you have a two channel amplifier and not a surround receiver. Most integrated amplifiers have A and B speaker selectors. If you have one of these then the problem is solved. If not, you may want to find an integrated to support both speaker A and B.
