I have the same question. Looking at the original post, the impetus seems to be "save hundreds on Sonos". I'm not that impressed with Sonos so this is like saying save hundreds on Bose. "This laid all the technical groundwork to prove that the Symfonisk speaker should work as a general purpose mono speaker amp." Then he goes on a crazy mod and solder run that almost no one could or should ever do. He wanted to power some ceiling speakers. I'd rather just buy a TPA 3116 amp with bluetooth and go from there or use echo dots like you say. I've got the DAMGOO in my greenhouse and it sounds damn fine. $25. https://www.amazon.com/Bluetooth-Amplifier-DAMGOO-Technique-Password/dp/B07XG33WPN https://www.amazon.com/Bluetooth-Amplifier-DAMGOO-Technique-...

It's for people who are all-in on the Sonos ecosystem, which supports stuff like multi-room audio (listen to your podcasts as you walk around the house), integration with music services etc. If you just want a single pair of speakers in one room and are fine just casting off your phone, of course Bluetooth is fine.

  Echo + Spotify does the whole multiroom thing, and would be unbeatable on price. Adding to an existing Sonos setup makes sense though
