… different option to Sonos, which I've never used, I'd suggest Wiim. I've got 4 setup throughout the house. They work well and you can use whatever dumb speakers you have with them. I've also got GoogleHome Nest Audios mixed in which work when they want to. These speakers are mainly used for voice control of HA, for the rare occasion an automation isn't handling everything.

Each row is one report from a GitHub thread, an integration’s docs, or r/homeassistant. Check the date and the linked source before you buy.

In ReReHome

Once Home Assistant’s HomeKit Bridge shares it, this device reaches Apple Home as a HomeKit accessory behind your Home Assistant bridge, so ReReHome shows and controls it like any other.
