Multiple monitors for a windows virtual machine where each is to be displayed on a different client (for a windows 10 virtual machine)

Hi!

I have a server (in my basement) running windows 10 as a virtual machine.  I would like the windows virtual machine to have 3 virtual displays (or at least 2), and I would like to display the frist virtual display on the monitor on the first machine in my office, the second virtual display on the monitor of the second machine in my office, and the third virtual display on the monitor of the third machine in my office.  All three machines in my office are running Lubuntu and have spice-client-gtk on them (I am running Lubuntu 16.04 so spice-client-gtk contains spicy).  I am using qemu-system-x86_64 to run the windows virtual machine, and I have two virtual displays working, but they are both displaying on the monitor of one of the machines in my office.  

Is there a way for me to tell (possibly by using different port numbers and spice options in the parameter list for qemu-system-x86_64) so that each virtual display is directed to a different physical machine?

I have listed my command line below (with an attempt to use two references to spice, which didn't work).

THANKS . . .

Phil

P.S.  I am also curious whether I am using image compression and video compression in a sensible manner.
