I am currently looking for a multiroom speaker system which does not force me to place wiretap into my home. Also it should be able to simultaneously play the same song on multiple speakers. Which device can you recommend me? Best would be if no additional internet connection is necessary.

Squeezelite ESP32.

Get a few inexpensive (way less then Sonos or anything else) ESP32 boards
Flash the firmware
Connect boards to speakers
Connect boards to Logitech Media Server accessible over WiFi
Enjoy listening to your Tom Cardy albums throughout your home

Squeezelite is great. I also run it on Windows and RPis. My favorite combo has been the Zero 2 W with a hifiberry zero DAC.
