Yup, we’re having the same problem with our devices in the theater we go to. They used to work great, but now, when the jacks to the headphones aren’t cutting out, which is pretty often, the audio track hums and the volume of the description is inaudible when the movie is in a louder section.

I hope that this is not off topic, but you cannot possibly compare the sound of the Home Pod with the Sonos Play 1, or the Sonos Play 3. It's simply not in the same category.Now, the Sonos play 5 speakers for $499 each, if you want true stereo, sound great. but remember, once you move away from

True, but you'll need to be careful what coaster you use. The material and the contact with the table surface could impact your sound quality. People should also take this into account if they're going to buy a $350 speaker and place it on their antique table. They may not want to toss a $10
