I would like to convert the 8 ohm speaker output coming from my Yamaha receiver to 4 ohms in order to use two niles speaker selectors for front and back to several rooms in the house. Any recommendations on a device that will do this for two pairs of speakers?

Redesign the amp....or buy one capable of handling a 4 Ohm load.

The solution would seem to be using impedance matching speaker switchers.

I'd reckon most any mfg of audio distribution gear makes them - Niles, Russound, et al.
