Apple Spatial Computing

t his lives up to my past with Apple, from 1985 and beyond. This again for a great product and the next level of Pro line of computing,

There was way more bass than I expected. Totally immersive. And free Apple spatial music for three months really showed me what these speakers can do. Also got submini, but bass in Era300 was sufficient. I do like having the SubMini.

I have two HomePods setup as a stereo pair. I started with one, which was PLENTY for my home office. But I wanted to Spatial Audio tricks that come with a stereo pair. The Spatial Audio tracks from Apple Music are simply amazing. Better than any home audio setup I've had over the years. I use them with my desktop setup and they pair seamlessly with my iMac and iPhone. I can also take calls on the HomePod from my iPhone, which makes conference calls much easier. The only negative is the price point, but B&H is consistently below Apple and others. If you are considering two HomePod Minis, I'd recommend getting a single HomePod instead for the better bass and mids, plus the ability to add a second one later.

Perfect addition to my Dolby Atmos sound system. The spatial audio on Apple Music sounds amazing on the system.

Apple already provides top-notch customer care; however, AppleCare provide one extra layer for peace of mind. I also own the new Aluminum iMac's and have never had to cash in on the AppleCare (knock on wood); however, the peace of mind knowing that if a time comes, I'll be taken care of pays for itself....it's why Apple is the forefront in computing technology and has revolutionized so many aspects of the computing arena.

This is the third generation of the Mac mini that I have used in my design and printing business. Apple packs a lot of computing power into a small package. It’s great to be able to re-use keyboards and monitors. Set-up is easy if you are familiar with the Mac environment. Performance is noticeably quicker than my older machines. Unfortunately, the basic operating system has expanded to include everything from grocery lists to cloud storage to location snooping. I don’t need any of these services and it took some time to turn them off and stop annoying messages. Apple should also remove Mail and Safari from the OS so they can be updated independently.

I use this workstation for all of my computing needs and it's a beast. I love the attention to detail that Apple give their systems. It is so quiet yet so powerful especially after I added 2 more gigs of Ram and another internal drive.

This is a one stop shop for all your computing needs!

I use the Era 300 in my dining room. Spatial audio works very well and I am able to hear music from various corners of the room. It is a hit and miss though as not all music works well with it, Also, there is no indicator on the Sonos App as to which tracks are in spatial audio, Inability to stream spatial audio directly over Airplay is also very inconvenient.

Like the shape and spatial sound!
