We have a Sonos speaker in the Kitchen and I'm so done with it.

We're going to renovate our kitchen in a few months and I plan to install a pair of speakers in the roof and hook them up to a Raspberry Pi with a Hifiberry amp and the HifiberryOS.

I'm sure there will be issues but at least I'll be free of Sonos.

Check out Wiim. A few amp options that are half the price of Sonos.

Why not just put your sound system on a shelf like everyone else so you don't need to renovate your kitchen next time you want to upgrade it.

They're just regular speakers you can connect to regular amps. If the raspberry pi doesn't work out I can simply switch that out.
