Summary:
- Apple has made it easier than ever to use HomePods or HomePod minis as computer speakers for your Mac.
- In order to use two HomePods as Mac speakers, you need to make sure they are in the same “room” in the Home app and configure them in a stereo pair.
- Once your HomePods are properly set up, you can select them as your default Mac speakers through the sound icon in the menu bar or the System Preferences.
- One drawback of using HomePods as Mac speakers is that they can frequently become disconnected with your Mac, but this can be easily fixed by selecting the HomePods via the sound icon in the menu bar.
