Speaker selector switch for sonos amp

I know the topic of speaker selector switches has been discussed before  but i would like to add a few points and or questions to the discussion. I’m presently using a sonos amp with 2 sets of wired speakers (one indoor and one outdoor). I understand the ideal setup would be to use two amps but that would be so expensive. The obvious option would be a speaker selector switch but there are complications with this eg. sound degradation, impedance, and possible damage to the amp. My question then is could Sonos not produce their own speaker selector switch that would be guaranteed compatible with the Sonos amp or at the very least make some recommendations of switches made by other manufacturers ?

Sonos has partnered with Sonance on the outdoor speakers - consider using one of their switches.  I use the SS4VC which can be had from Ebay for $60-70 and were top of the line when they were introduced.  It works great and I have it set up for two pairs of Sonance ceiling speakers inside, two sets of B&W outdoor speakers for the backyard.  The amp has no trouble powering all at once and their have been no impedance issues.
