Apple HomePod 2nd Generation - First Impressions
Today I took a trip to Manhattan to hear the new HomePod Generation 2 from Apple. First impressions of how it handled music playback made me emotional because I realized Apple has achieved that blend of performance plus stylish minimalism it is so well known for.www.soundandvision.com
Listened today in store to Homepod Mini, and it didn't impress.
Measurements in an untreated sterile room. Looks like some decent improvements. Needs the @amirm full measurement. From:

the same applies to all streaming services.I don't think that critique of Spotify's business model has much relevance for Apple Music, say.
These have a unique feature when used with apple TV: Wireless audio over airplay 2 without delay. Hence they can be used for video without lipsync problems.
I'm not sure how it's implemented, presumably by delaying video on the apple TV.

-6db@30hz? Is that even possible?Measurements in an untreated sterile room. Looks like some decent improvements. Needs the @amirm full measurement. From:

-6db@30hz? Is that even possible?
Yes, and when the "Reduce bass" option was enabled I thought they sounded pretty good, not too bassy. Given that they have lots of DSP internally is a pity that Apple haven't provided more control that this one option.The originals were incredibly bassy and boomy without EQ. They made even my Genelec 8341s and Kef Reference 1s seem bass shy lmao.
Its insane. I am actually buying it with hopes of it removing my 2.1 system with a 10" sub (no dsp)...-6db@30hz? Is that even possible?
