Glen I have just discovered:
And am now using this with ‘Big Talker’ smartapp extensively - The wife is getting bored with me now 
I bought a couple of these:
and connected them to a couple of these:

Via a cable rather than Bluetooth - You could use any kind of amplified (PC?) speakers
(I realise you may not be in the UK but I’m sure you have an Amazon near you )
I have one setup on my upper floor and one setup on the lower floor of my house… You may find that one is sufficient at a central point in the home.
This has worked flawlessly since I installed & configured everything last week and we now benefit from announcements like:
“The dryer has finished so get off your butt and empty it”
“Your darling husband is home!”
“The dragon have arrived”
Coming soon…
“The conservatory plants need watering”
“There is someone at the front door”
