Best speakers for an echo dot?

edgedemon · 17 Nov 2016 at 11:42

I'm thinking of trying multi room audio by buying an echo dot for each room as my missus surprisingly really likes her dot.

So I'm looking for some reasonable speakers, can be Bluetooth or I can use the 3.5mm jack, can anyone recommend anything half decent.

Obviously we are not in the slightest sense audiophiles, I'm just looking for something that will sound half decent that will give my better half her spotify playlists in every room.

Just FYI
Amazon Echos dont support multi room audio.
I expect it to come in an update at some point though.

cant you just have a dot in each room with a spotify/prime account on and when your in the room you want to listen to music and ask her to play music ?.

Yeah, maybe multi room audio was the wrong term, Im planning on one in each room and using them as a stereo if you like, she has a spotify account so I want her to play her music from whatever room she is in, and I want better speakers than the one the dot has
