Hey guys I am looking for an amp to go with the Apple TV. This is what I am after. I have a bedroom with ceiling speakers and the master bath with ceiling speakers. I want to power them with music from the Apple TV. Now this is not the issue. I want the amp to match the Apple TV. I need that look. I do not want a big amp sitting on by dresser. I thought it would be nice if there was a small amp that matched the Apple TV so I could stack them. Any suggestions?

I don't know if you'll find anything that matches what you're looking for... buuutttt...

A good choice might be an amp that has HDMI. That way you have one cable going from the AppleTV to the amp. Some amps even have built in 1080p upconversion. I doubt that's going to make a huge difference from the AppleTV's 720p, but it can help cleanup 480p iTunes Store stuff.
