Streaming to two devices at the same time?

Bagher — Fri, 16 Dec 2016 08:46:23 GMT

So I have one speaker from B&W in my living room and one onyx speaker in my kitchen, both of which can stream music over my wifi.
The problem I'm encountering is that I can't stream music from Spotify to both speakers simultaneously.
Annoying as Id like to listen to my music anywhere in my apartment. Computer in my bedroom, living room speaker and my speaker in my kitchen.

Is there any fix to this?
My brother has the Sonos system and it works flawlessly - but for us who doesn't use Sonos, is there a way to do this directly from Spotify?

As far i know there is no way. It works if you take family abonement. But with a single premium account a true multiroom system is the only way to stream to different speakers.

Well that sucks..
surely Spotify could make a solution for this fairly easy?
If they limit it to only one tune to be played simultaneously (so I can't play different tunes in different rooms) and that all the speakers have to be connected to the same wifi (router IP) there wouldn't be any account sharing either with this function.
