NOTE: Keep in mind these system requirements: So how do you get this sphere up and running? The Apple magic way that's how! Configured HomePod mini in action (Siri configuration in the process) Setup process So it will be interesting to see how that will work as well.įinally, I have some HomeKit-compliant hardware in the house as well, and even though I use them on my iPhone widget, or with Siri, it will be fun to have another device to control them in case my phone is not close. In any case, apart from a regular speaker player, and a potential intercom device, unlike most of the people that I know, I use Siri a lot. Braided 1,5m long fixed USB-C cable USB-C 20W power adapter (decent weight to it I might add) Sure, I could get a radio or something like that but then again this small portable speaker looked like an ideal candidate! Also, I can move it around and multiple people can use it with their Apple products, so if it turns out to be useful, I might get another one just so I can annoy my wife in the other room (or maybe she will annoy me, hmm?). The rest of it, including the manual and cable, is in the bottom Well, the main reason was that considering that I now work full time from my home, using my headphones most of the time to listen and interact with my coworkers, I sometimes wish there was some ambient noise (music) playing in the room. It arrived on the 25th, so nine days after the official roll-out, not bad. Small, compact, and powerfull, HomePod Mini Worldwide shipping started on the 16th of November and mine got shipped on the 20th. Plex track radio just seems a lot better.With all the details on the site, I will not go into anything general here but focus on my usage of the device and how it performs.Ĭonsidering that this particular product is not accessible for purchase in Croatia I had to order it from Germany, specifically from. I listen to Roon track radio a lot and wouldn’t like to mis it. To me the lists in Plex are more enjoyable and more logical as a list. Here are two examples of the radio function in Roon and in Plex. I suggest and hope that Roon focusses on what is their core business and keep it the best in the market. Roon is still superieur when listening to music with my Hegel and Harbeths via HQplayer.īut I do think that Plex made a gigantic step with Sonic Similar and surpassed Roon in that area. I don’t wish to replace Roon with Plex as I think they are two very different pieces of software. Also Roon loses connection sometimes or pauses long between tracks, while Plex has never done that to me. Roon loses connection when i pause the music, but when I pause with PlexAmp and turn on my headphone a few hours later, PlexAmp immediately starts playing from where it left off. In the way I use it, PlexAmp is better than Roon for use with headphones and bluetooth. Hmmm, wish that was the other way around. Yesterday I fed the PlexAmp track radio choices in Roon to make a playlist. I want to like ‘track radio’ in Roon, but I often get strange tracks, so I change to my playlists. I think that Roon is depending heavily on Tidal or Qobuz features, maybe even to much. Must say I don’t have a streaming subscription like Tidal or Qobuz. I enjoy it immensely with the PlexAmp app and headphones. It is spot on and chooses similar sounding tracks in a small bandwidth. With 10k lossless albums accessible to both Plex (pass) and Roon (lifetime), I can say that Sonic Similar or Super Sonic is amazing.
