They're passive speakers, need an amplifier, right?
Obvs. put an amp in the kitchen.
yeah, just dont want anything bulky i guess. I suppose i could get one of those china amp/bluetooth boards

ThisI was thinking more along the lines of a cs800, I mean, you don't really need all that cabinet space anyway, right?
Smaller footprint
Look at this on eBay http://www.ebay.com/itm/332036942089
I like those Ice amp modules Lambie put up on BassAttack.Those are cool, but I think he just wants to have a little ambient music going in the kitchen. Chinese smps/classD circuit board in something the size of, IDK, say 4 cigarette packs. Could hid up under a cupboard or something.
this should fit the bill: https://www.amazon.com/TDA7492P-Amp...484951756&sr=1-3&keywords=bluetooth+amplifier

Yep, this sounds about right.
Are they home theater or stereo type speakers mounted to the ceiling or are they "ceiling speakers" like you see mounted in an office ceiling?
The office ceiling ones sometimes have weird impedances and are run off a 70 Volt system, chaining a bunch of them together to pipe muzak through an office floor or retail store or whatever.
There's likely an inexpensive Chinese chip amp solution for that too, just verify/Google what you have for speakers and get an amp to match.
proper ht speakers. These ones

Those amps are typically rated for power at 24V with a 4 ohm impedance load. If you've got a 24V power supply at 2-3A, and your speakers are 4 ohm, you'll have a 50W amp.this should fit the bill: https://www.amazon.com/TDA7492P-Amp...484951756&sr=1-3&keywords=bluetooth+amplifier
@Domon, I prefer to buy little class D's from partsexpress (or straight offa @gee), because they typically have a PDF explaining their watt ratings and stuff.
All the class D amps commonly available run on 12-24VDC.Parts express is where it's at.
Likely cheaper solutions but data needed to know if they're actually solutions or fancy paperweights is lacking.
I assumed the thing in his link was typical 120V mains. A lot of those things are power supply and amp(s) all on one board. At least the ICE modules and stuff they use in bass amps are.
