So, I’ve got a Synology Nas, with my music stored, which I would like to access via Alexa.

Now I’ve read lots of threads that say it’s not possible.
But I’ve also just read an article here- https://nascompares.com/how-to-play-music-from-nas-on-alexa/
So if the Alexa can access the music then surely it will play over the speaker ? I know there are lots of threads that states it’s not possible.

I can pick up play 3s quite cheap as they are being discontinued, and was going to get a connect. An Amazon Dot could then wire connect to the Connect.
I guess I am missing something, as I’ve read all the threads

Not possible at this time. The link you have listed uses Bluetooth to the Echo speakers. Sonos speakers are not Bluetooth capable.
That’s not as I read it. The pages lists different routes to access. Including LAN and WiFi and then commands to ask Alexa.

Again Apologies if I’ve missed something.
