Big Talker or Lannouncer work with other connected speakers. I mentioned Fabriq as a particularly affordable option (~$50 for the small model https://www.amazon.com/Portable-Bluetooth-Speaker-Amazon-FABRIQ/dp/B01LYZAWRO/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1526477014&sr=8-3&keywords=fabriq). Alexa only responds when spoken to and cannot be triggered by events (someone please correct me if the Announce capability that was mentioned in another thread can now be used for this?). The other way to do what you want is to set up the Echo as a bluetooth output speaker for a tablet or other device - but at that point there’s no particular reason to have an Echo over any other Bluetooth device (you don’t need your guests to ask about the weather or play music by voice, right?). See here for more discussion. Alexa doorbell announcement
