What are people hooking up to their HAVpe's for good sounding speakers? Obviously Big brands like Bose kill it, but any cheap alternatives with good sound for whole house audio?

Can I ask why you refuse? It's a decent quality product and supports (at least in my opinion) the efforts of an ethical company

As I said the PE has a bad speaker.. My existing devices are in 5 different rooms and mostly used for casual music listening. I have no intent on purchasing PEs + external speakers for every room. Particularly to clutter night stands.

I am waiting for something more like this.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n5yNEhcAjWU

Or something like a amazon dot or google mini with an OK music speaker
