I asked the other day about home audio setups under £250. Sonos was the most popular answer but it seems to be out my budget (4 rooms).

Google mini’s are £22 each. I could get one in every room, plus bathrooms, & still have money left over.

All I need is to play audio, mostly Spotify, from my TV, phone & desktop. Pretty sure this’ll do that.

For my TV, (By chance, I’ve gotten a Google Chromecast), which I think could link to these but I need to research that more.

Am I missing anything or would this be a good setup for me?

    Audio quality is obviously an issue, certainly in your “main” room at least I’d at least get a MAX.

    The other issue with the Google speakers right now is that you can only have one “group” due to some patent thing they lost to Sonos.

    I’ve also had some issues with robustness of having 7 of the speakers playing at once – they tend to drop out often for small intervals. But that could just be a me thing.
