Are you using the 70-Volt output, or the 8-ohm output?

Then you just need to get speakers that include the 70-volt matching transformer, and you can extend the wiring from the existing speakers to the new ones. Just connect them in parallel (like daisy-chaining phone jacks in the old days). Set the transformer tap to a wattage that will give you a volume level appropiate for the speaker location, and be sure that the total of all the speakers does not to exceed 80% of the amplifier's wattage rating.
