AIrplay 2 support on SRS-X77 and other network connected speakers

Do anybody know if any of the previous or current speakers in the lineup will get support for airplay 2 as it would be nice with multiroom support without the app

Please see here for Support for Multi-room compatible products.

He didn't ask what Sony speakers were multi-room compatible via Sony's Music Center app!

He asked if any of Sony's current airplay enabled speakers would be updated to airplay 2! (Possibly by a firmware/software update)

Kind Regards,

Warren

Any news on update for Airplay 2 on the SRS series speakers. I have one X77, two X88 and one Z7 and would like to be able to control them in Apple Home Kit.

So what is the deal here? Is Sony just providing this platform for support but not actually following it and giving any support?

Kind regards

Flemming

+1 for AirPlay 2 support!! Maybe Sony needs more votes to raise the priority... Pretty please, Mr. (or Ms.) Sony, if you read this, please consider adding support for AirPlay2 in an upcoming firmware update for SRS-X77 and other existing Airplay-compatible speakers. THANK YOU!!
