    I now have 3 HomePods Gen 2 in my house and they are incredible for what they are. If you are in the Apple ecosystem and want something that has incredible sound in a nice-looking package, these are for you. Yes, the price is not cheap, especially if you pair them for use with your Apple TV, which I did. However, you do get incredible sound that will make you wonder how they do it without a dedicated sub. If you like Apple products, you won't be disappointed with these, especially if you pair them. They truly fill the room. The only downsides I have found so far is that you can't change the EQ on them and they won't work with something you need to plug in, such as a turntable. I've found that the auto EQ works for almost everything I have used it for, including music and movies. For my money, they are as good or better than a Sonos or other soundbars, but maybe not as much as as more expensive systems dedicated for Atmos. But at that level, you're spending a lot more and getting something that doesn't look nearly as unobtrusive.

    Best HomePod Yet!

    I have had all Apple's HomePods and do believe this one (2nd Generation) is the best! It sounds very good w/ nice bass. Some may say the price is a bit high for such a speaker. However, being a 'Apple Home' it just makes sense to have HomePods vs something else.

    I love how full it sounds, especially when running music that has a deep bass in it... reggae and R&B always feel divine.

    I'm an Apple girl all the way and so of course I am giving the speaker a rave review. I have the smaller HomePod as well and this one blows it away! The sound is so rich and carries the deep sounds effortlessly. I have pair this with the 2 minis and it's like a concert hall in here! Go ahead and purchase this HomePod, you won't be sorry!

    Love it! Recommend you buy two for the stereo output. A single speaker sounds great as well. It’s loud, music sounds great, love using it with my Apple TV 4K for a surroundsound. Use it in my master bedroom, would sound good and a small to medium living room. Siri is not great but if you’re in the Apple ecosystem, you know that already.

    I have just moved from Android to the world of Apple, and have never used voice commands on any device but this has made the transition seemless ... and I now love having a little information servant. It's a great time saver!

    So I originally bought two of these things, one for each of my Apple TVs in different rooms and after plugging it in in the living room, I found that it didn’t work for what I wanted. It wasn’t loud enough to fill the room and it didn’t have the base that I was hoping it would to replace my sound bar, but it is really good in the bedroom. I have it in there and Siri while she’s a bit on the dumb side, does everything I need.

    I have always had higher-end stereos like Pioneer Elite and Denon. After hearing in the store, I ordered one for home. It's very easy to use/connect an iPhone and play Sirius or local music. Next up, I'll connect it to an Apple TV. If that works well and sounds good, I plan to get a 2nd one for the Spatial audio capabilities.

    These things are amazing! Started with one to test out. Ended up buying 2 more. I replaced my sound bar and use 2 for my main tv audio. And the other in my gym. This prompted me to get 2 mini ones for my bedroom tv. Only downside is they’re not Bluetooth.. but I’m primarily Apple in my home so I’m good.

    Very happy with this new model! I now have 2 of these as L/R stereo front speakers, and 2 mini HomePods as L/R stereo back speakers being used with my Apple TV 4K newest model. I also have a bunch of other mini HomePods scattered throughout the house, and they all sound amazing. These HomePod 2nd Gen offer just the right amount bass with the high excursion woofer.

    So the HomePod replaced a small stereo in our family room. Easy to set up, easy to use, and great sound. Super small footprint that freed up a lot of space. Seamless Apple integration made this a no-brainer for our home.

    I really like this speaker. It integrates well with my Apple TV and it sounds great. I also like that it connects through my WiFi and not BT. This lets me play music on the speaker AND tv which are in different rooms. A very nice feature.
