I want to buy a speaker for HA
From reading the forum I saw a lot of recommendations about Sonos
My network is local and without access to an external network,
Will Sonos work fine for me?
Do Sonos speakers also work on an internal network?
I would love to receive more recommendations on a cheap speaker for TTS messages

So in short, it would kind of work (with enough elbow grease and willpower), but not fine.
