I am looking for a simple, two channel amplifier to run a pair of ceiling speakers. The amp will have a single input from the television.

I am looking for the following:
- Small, low profile. Preferably something that could be mounted on the wall hidden behind the TV.
- Always on.
- Volume controlled by TV, no separate remotes for amp.
- Single input, two channel output.

This TV/ceiling speaker combo is going to be used in a kitchen area where the primary concern is background music played with an attached Apple TV and some cable. Therefore audio quality doesn't need to be spectacular.

Can anyone suggest a product that may meet my needs?
