Speakers A and B simultaneosly in different rooms

I would like to find the best way to run music simultaneously out of two sets of speakers on diffent sides of the house. What is the most effective method. Would it be to connect the amps/preamps of the the two sets (if so, how?), to use a common source with 2 outputs and run an individual line out to each amp, or to find an amp with A and B speakers, and run a long speaker wire to the next room.
Note the two sets wont be more than 20 feet apart.
Thank for the help.

Thank you for all this valuable imput!
I like the idea of running two different amps through dual outputs from the pre. Currently I have been running two rca cables (one a 20 ft. extension) out of my source ipod(lossless encoding.)One through the headphone jack (not as desirable) and one out of the dock. Does anybody have an opinion on whether this set up (or dual rca from any source with dual outputs) is better or worse than a preamp with dual outputs.
Thanks!

I was think of having 2 complete set ups of speakers/ pre/ amp. With the ipod on a cradle, I can run two independent rca cables from this source. I would feed one into each preamp. Currently this is what I am doing, but I am using 2 integrated amps. I will be upgrading to the two sets of separates. Please let me know if this is a bad idea. I apologize if this is difficult to understand- I know I probably lack the proper terminology. Thanks for the help.
