Integrated with jacks for 2 sets of speakers?

OK, I have had 2 complete systems in my living room for a number of years as I have 2 sets of speakers, one for days and a more sensitive one for late nights. My wife has asked me for a long time to get it down to one system. She is ok with the speakers, its the mass of electronics she hates. SO, I am looking for either a quality integrated that can enable me to alternate speakers or a quality switch (not sure that exists). Figure minimum 75 WRMS and good current as speakers are 85 and 86db sensitivity and one is 6 OHM.$2000-3500 new. I currently have a 7 or 8 year old Marantz PM8005 which is good but going to my office. I also run a separates system but figure that is going into the backup closet. I have been looking but it seems that this feature is not very popular.

There are many integrated amplifiers that have outputs for two psirs of speakers. they have a selector that will allow listening to either one pair or both at the same time. 

Check out Vincent Audio for one example. I once owned a Vincent integrated and found it wonderful. Led me down the tube preamp/SS amplifier route. In your price range.
