![]() We expect AirPlay 2 to rectify many, if not all, issues people are currently experiencing. MacDailyNews Take: If you think a Sonos Play:1 sounds better than a HomePod, you suffer from amusia. ![]() Apple will certainly fix these issues in upcoming software patches.” So, I shelled out the premium $350 to grab one of these guys on opening weekend and got burned as an early adopter. Therefore, the ability to push iTunes and system audio to an awesome speaker, right next to my iMac, is an amazing opportunity. Let’s just say, there is not currently a proprietary app that will make that happen. You see, this is just my opinion… To spare you a very long story, for a shorter-but-still-long story, I could not and still cannot get macOS to reliably output audio to the HomePod from my late-2017 iMac… As a Sonos customer, I was very interested in an AirPlay speaker that I could use with my iMac, because there is no way to get your Apple desktop to push audio to Sonos… Well, not easily. “Again, I am no authority on sound quality. “I’m not an audiophile, but I do have experience with prosumer level audio products,” Gresham writes. These statements are grossly exaggerated.” But so many reviews claim it sounds better than even thousand-dollar equipment. In fact, if you had hidden it behind a screen, played music, then revealed to me how small it is, I would have never believed it. HomePod does sound incredible, don’t get me wrong! There is a lot of impressive sound coming from a device about the size of a tissue box. “I’m not going to tear into the HomePod and just bash its sound quality. Full room audio is definitely something HomePod delivers in a sleek package, and with a voice assistant,” Gresham writes. “The kit is impressive and a lot of speakers are crammed into a small footprint. “No surprise, I had to go get one on launch weekend, but, I am not sure I intend to keep it.” “When HomePod finally came to market little more than a week ago, I read review after review that immediately gushed over the device’s premium audio quality,” Jim Gresham writes for iDownloadBlog.
