Hi looking for a steer on my setup, I am quite happy with the current 2 room setup but looking at adding a 3rd speaker in series on channel b.
I have a yamaha AS201 Amp (100w x2 output power) which I had two heybrook 100w floorstanders connected but have since replaced with a 50w wharfdale e30 (channel A) and 1970s 25w Pioneer model (channel b) I found both speakers in the local recycling centre and have been using for 2 years and believe the sound to be better than the heybrook set up.

Each speaker is in a different room and now looking at adding a 3rd room and would like to add a ceiling speaker in series with the 25w channel b through a single pole switch to isolate the 3rd speaker if needed.

Is there any issues I need to concider or can the above even work? and any recommendations on a suitable speaker/switch to link in would be greatly appreciated.
