It's very difficult and fighting an uphill battle to get two totally independent wifi music receivers to together output a single stero signal split across them. I don't think even dedicated systems like Sonos support it. Run speaker wire around the room perimeter to an amp and you will be infinitely happier.

It’s a massive challenge implementing this yourself but various smart speaker protocols have supported syncing speakers for a while now. I can’t speak for if they also split stereo signals (I think I read Yamaha can) but splitting a stereo signal is very easy even without comparing it to the challenge of syncing speakers.

They do. So do HomePods, other mass brands. Not my cup of tea, but people seem to love them when they work.
