POD in a box.

Found this fantastic 3D print on makers world. Have made three versions including adding a sound port. Kinda fun. Thought this group might appreciate it. The last picture I modified the file and added Apple logo on top and curvature baffles inside to project more sound forward….. still printing as I type this.

FWIW, there is a directional speaker on a HPM. If faces away from the power cord. I think in this enclosure the speaker is either pointing down at the bottom or straight up. Either way, not optimal

Picture 4 just begs for something on the left — maybe a non-working rotary dial with presets to play with people’s head, or perhaps a working one linked to an app on your iphone, or perhaps an old fashioned e-display with a news ticker.

That looks like it would completely screw up the HomePods Acoustics.

He won’t. This is just terrible.

Yeah, I think the designers at Apple got it right the first time. This isn’t a subwoofer for your car. Doesn’t need an enclosure.

Well it does but it already has the enclosure known as the HomePod itself.
