I put two HomePods up against my trusty B&W A7.

- HomePods together have clearer highs than the A7
- A7 has fuller mids than two HomePods
- A7 sounds better than a single HomePod
- A7 sounds ever so slightly better than two HomePods in stereo

Also:
- A7 airplay is not 100% reliable
- Siri / Apple Music integration is a joy to use for firing up some tunes

Bonus:
- A7 + a HomePod sitting on each side is a blast!


Tried comparing FLAC files but I don't have a way to play HomePods in stereo out of anything but iTunes yet (and have not converted to ALAC)
