    I like the bass on the newer model. It’s over all one of the best sounding speakers on the market for people who are deeply intigrated in apple ecosystem.

    So far I’m impressed with this HomePod. I had the first gen and the smaller one. The sound is great with my music and some of the updates I’ve discovered are amazing.

    The sequel is always better at least in this case it is! Refined sound in every way. I purchased 2 of these and the sound is the best I’ve heard from any speaker this size ever!!!!

    I just dont think its worth 3x a home pod mini and if i need to buy 2 at $600 the question then is would it sound as good as a Sonos play 5? I dont think its loud enough by itself. I think Apple really should have done more. I think for it to sound good you would definitely need to buy 2 of these. In a bedroom its decent but in a large living space such as the living room one is simply not enough to fill the space. I have mixed feelings about it. Maybe if i get another one i can update this review.

    For being a $300, the sound is a major let down. For this price point, i would expect punchy bass, good highs (which this speaker does deliver), and a full and rich sound. If this speaker was between $150-$200 price range, this would easily be a 5 star. If you're looking for a loud speaker with deep bass, this isn't for you. If you like good clarity, and a more balanced sound, then this for you but definitely not worth the price. You would be better of buying an Echo Studio and get bigger and better sound for cheaper

    Works great in my home office connected to the ATV. This replaces two HomePod minis in the room. Works well and provides better sound for the room.

    Even with fewer speakers and mikes, this sounds better than my original HomePod. Also has many new features for $50 less than I paid for the old one. Love it.
