ah man.

So I have the latest Philips hue bridge with some hue bulbs running.

Does that mean I can use the Philips hue bridge with the Trader bulls but I need to buy the switches?

Depending on your setup, could you invest in one of the zigbee packet sniffers instead.
hardware is listed on the zigbee2mqtt page. a quick google will find it.
talks to hue, tradfri and many more.

One switch is enough to pair them with the gateway. Them you can move the bulbs into other groups.

Hue Play double pack in black down from £120 to £107. Not exactly the bargain of the century but picked up a pair just now.

As you said, not the greatest bargain ever but I can definitely recommend the Hue Plays. Have them set up behind the TV and synced to the PC. They work really well and give a great atmosphere during movies.

Two Sonos One (Gen 2) speakers from Amazon.de for €122.35 including delivery direct to Ireland. Delivery is €14 but I think it's free if you use Parcel Motel.

They are £199 each on the UK site.

Do these speakers have Google Assistant? or are they Alexa?

If you download the Alexa app, you can communicate with Alexa devices remotely using assistant on your Android phone. Works with the Echo spot, so I guess it might work with Sonos if it's using Alexa.

Same, are they likely to cancel because of the incorrect price?

Well yes , but it’s out if stock. They just won’t restock them.

Suppose, wishful thinking to be getting them at that price but sure worth a shot

Google Assistant has come directly to Sonos in the US. As in, in the sonos app, you can select between either Alexa or Google.

I'm not sure if this is available in Ireland yet.
