Based on a recent comment here, I realized that I had heard of a couple of voice options for HA, but that there were obviously more out there that I hadn't heard of. I'm in the market to eventually replace all of my google home speakers, because I miss my voice integrations after deciding I didn't want Google harvesting us any more. I have 2 Google Nest Audio's, one original Google Home Mini, and one original Google Home.

My ideal would be an open-sourced Reflash for all of them, but ultimately I think PCB replacements for the Mini and the Nest Audio's are the most likely candidates. They look good and blend in around the house, and sound great for their size.

So here are the options I've heard of: what has anyone else seen that might be useful to me or anyone else looking for good local HA audio?

• Home Assistant Aux 2 (from the latest post that made me think of this)
• seeed respeaker - available in multiple shapes and configurations, but not really designed as an all-in-one solutino
• Louder ESP32 - again available in a few shapes and sizes, but needs old bookshelf speakers, and has no mic capability that I can see.
• onju voice - turns a nest mini gen 2 into a local device, but for music these devices are too small to ever sound good.
• futureproof homes satellite1.1 - by far the most complete offering, and it has a chance of sounding good, but is priced accordingly.

So what is everyone else using / pining over?
