Hey everyone! Thanks for watching. Hard to rate this speaker given such a specific use case. Also, couple of clarifications: Sorry if I didn’t make this clean in the video, but any TV audio can be routed through an Apple TV to the HomePods via ARC or eARC. TV streaming apps, game console, cable box, Blu-ray player, you name it. Virtually no latency — not enough to notice, I still have to measure. Also, still testing volume control using various TVs, will update soon.

Apple: " We sell smart speakers" Caleb: " Nah, you sell TV speakers!" Great review.
-
I literally searched for a video like this 20 minutes after it was posted. Perfect timing and saved me from continuing down the rabbit hole of sound bars!
-
It is an entry level home audio speaker with Smart capability. That’s nice that most people are fine with sound that is “good enough” the HomePod Mini is available for them. The mini sounds OK, I have one and seldom use it, the Home Pods get used all day almost everyday. The new and OG HomePods are for people that want room filling sound without paying thousands. This fits the price point of Sony and Sonos speakers.
-
Thanks for the review Caleb. Nice job as always. I would really like to hear your oppinion (review) about the new Klipsch Sevens and Nines.
-
Hi Caleb, awesome review at the right time for me. I loved my Gen 1 Homepod and replaced it with a Sonos Beam Gen 2 but I think I prefer the Homepod’s sound profile more. I already own an appl tv 4k 2nd gen and now need to either go Sonos sub mini or get the 2 new Homepods and sell the Sonos? Was the Beam used in your testing a 1st or 2nd gen?
-
Speaking from someone who is in the Apple eco system, I really enjoyed the the first gen speaker I enjoyed the sound and how seamlessly it transfers music from device to device . My older Ones will go in my room and purchase the new one for the living room.
-
Apple needs to update the HomePod mini to be surroundsound speakers.
-
Love mine as a pair. One side note with “one” more piece of Apple hardware, an old AirPort Express, you can add a powered subwoofer to the mix and now, altogether it’s amazing.
-
THIS is the review I’ve been looking for!👏 Thanks for the in-depth review. Much appreciated!
-
I have been looking at reviews all day and been solely wanting to hear thoughts on Spatial Audio. Thank you!
-
Hello, great video! just wondering if you have one talking about two echo studio as a home theater as well, that be great thank you
-
This review is just what i was looking for. My use case is mostly as TV speakers and I allready have the new Apple TV 4 K. Great to see a review where the focus is on the sound and not the “smart”
-
Thank you for the great review. If you compare 2 2nd Gen HomePods vs Sony HTA9 with sub performance in both surround sound and music quality. Which one would you pick?
-
Thank you for actually going to detail of how they sound. Thank you for also comparing them to sound bars. :)
-
YOU LITERALLY ANSWERED EVERYTHING I WAS THINKING! Ever since the announcement I was questioning getting 2 of these vs the Vizio ATMOS sound bar for the living room
-
Hmm I have 2 of the original. I wonder how they compare to those. Does the quality suffer because of fewer tweeters?
-
finally someone comparing it to good speakers and a sound bar. best review
-
Thanks for the review. Convinced to get a pair!
-
It would be so great if they could release a software update that allows you to make it in a surround sound system! It would be interesting to have 5 or 9 HomePods all around!
