I have the kanto tuks which have amazing sound and look nice.
Drawbacks are the sound increments are spaced too far apart - it goes from quiet to loud in just a couple clicks.
And they’re almost too big for a desk. My desk happens to be oversized so it’s fine, but the smaller kefs might be more suitable for some.

Still using my Swans M10 speakers. They're relatively inexpensive and sound great, plus they look good.
Already have a pair of HomePod Minis (and treated myself to the 2nd gen. HomePod) so will be using them for the foreseeable.
My setup is overkill and comical. I have a Samsung Q600B with rears connected at my desk. I didn’t purchase it for this but when I upgraded our home theater setup to a Q990C, I looked at the resale of the old system and decided Id rather just have an awesome but overkill system at my desk 😁. The nice thing is that it actually fits perfectly under my monitors.
I have the Kanto Yu2 and the 6" sub. I love them. The sound is incredible given the size of the speakers. The sub is a must however.
Are these the speakers you have? If so how do they sound?

I keep on using my Harman Kardon SoundSticks III that plug into the earphone jack and are more than 10 years old.
Yes that is what I am using. I think they sound pretty good. I used them on my iMac and moved them to this Studio instead of replacing them as I was happy with the sound.Are these the speakers you have? If so how do they sound?

Paired stereo HomePod speakers - I've had them since they were first introduced in Feb 2018. They still sound great.
I'm somewhat surprised that so few others here have HomePods!

Is your internet connection good and reliable?
Some users have reported lag in the beginning of Youtube videos, have you noticed this?
Others have reported for example with their Mac Studio, MacOS defaulting to the Apple Studio Display speakers in-built speakers instead of the HomePods for no apparent reason and having to reset often throwout the day.
I presume system sounds eg for new mail work well and with no lag?
Joey Roth Ceramic Speakers (and subwoofer). They look amazing, but better sound can definitely be had for cheaper. https://www.wired.com/2012/10/roth-ceramic-subwoofer-drops-that-bass/
I have a completely separate sound system in my office with a streamer, CD, and record player. The speakers are the Revel Concerta2 M16. Way overkill.
I had a pair of the OG HomePods but had to sell them for personal reasons.
Was lucky enough to win a significant amount of gift cards with an electrical retailer here in the UK so treated myself to a second gen. alongside my Mac Studio.
