Only had HomePod for 5 hours but initial tests of music genres (indie, hip hop, jazz) were great, especially at louder volumes. Also watching Olympics via Apple TV and HomePod as audio – way better than the TV speakers. Can’t wait to dig in more this weekend.

@endonend I am surprised that Homepod sounds better than the TV speakers -- especially given the smaller form factor. Anything specific makes it better?

@JohnPhilpin of course there would be many (soundbars). Am surprised a speaker as small as Homepod can.

@amit yeah it’s just the built-in speakers. HomePod is just so clear - like the announcer’s voices were crisp & easily discernible from the background music/sounds. Our TV speakers volume needs to be turned up for many shows just to hear voices. HomePod was on 20%.
