Twelve years to go from iPod HiFi to HomePod

That comparisons are odious is known to all, but in the case of HomePod, we cannot keep talking and talking about it without remembering that the same It has a predecessor who is twelve years old in a few days and is called iPod HiFi. 

Yes, Apple put on sale a sound system that it called iPod HiFi twelve years ago and it turned out to be a sales flop. Such was the failure that in a short time it was discontinued to become a memory for many people.

I am lucky to own one of these iPod HiFi and if I tell you the truth, it is not as more as I have been able to read on the net. It is a speaker that actually has the sound technology for the time it has and that twelve years ago what we could see at a reasonable price in terms of sound was not good to say. IPod HiFi sound it's forceful and when you turn the volume up to 100% it's thunderous.

Madrid - February 28, 2006 - Apple today announced the iPod Hi-Fi, a new hi-fi speaker system designed to work seamlessly with the iPod, redefining the concept of home stereo music. IPod Hi-Fi offers exceptional acoustic performance and room-filling sound like no other speaker system designed for the iPod. It has an innovative and fully integrated design that can be powered by plugging it in or by means of six standard D-type batteries. The iPod Hi-Fi can be comfortably controlled with the Apple Remote for a great listening experience. listening to music in any room in the house.

"Apple reinvents the home stereo system with the new iPod Hi-Fi, the first iPod accessory to bring true hi-fi quality sound to iPod," says Steve Jobs, Apple's CEO. "IPod Hi-Fi's unmatched acoustic performance and sleek design make it perfect for any room in the house."

However, I just want to tell you that the comparisons are going to start to happen and we have already found the first one, in which a great YouTuber tries to see how to turn the iPod HiFi into a kind of HomePod with the help of an adapter and Siri in the Iphone. Then I leave you with the video in which you will be able to see the iPod HiFi once again and check that the YouTuber himself ends up saying that the sound is really forceful. 

In a short time I will have a HomePod in my hands and I will be able to launch a new article, this time with full knowledge of both and thus I will be able to give you my humble opinion, although only with what I have been able to see on the net, I think the HomePod It will leave me in another dimension.
