Default Speaker level adjustment

My amplifier has two outputs. One is switched, and used for the
speakers in the living room. The other is taken via a separate
switch box to speakers in the dining room and kitchen.

Originally, the relative sound levels in all three rooms were
reasonably matched. However, during a kitchen refit, I had to
get rid of the conventional speakers, and fitted a pair of small
KEF in-ceiling units. These have a rather lower output level. If
I deselect the dining room pair, the kitchen is well enough
matched to the living room.

As a least cost work-around, it strikes me that I might be able
to improve the situation by inserting series resistors in the
feed to the dining room. Would this work? Living in a semi, I
don't run at particularly high sound levels.
