I’m satisfied that a significant number of audiophiles have said that they feel the HomePod produces good audio. The numbers seem to back that up.

We live in an age of lo-fi hi-bling, high consumer numbers from people who consider themselves experts in audio quality because they have a soundbar and a subwoofer don't really count for much.

I don't expect you to be convinced by me, but maybe one day you will experience some nice audio on a good system and then have a personal baseline to understand why calling something this small "audiophile quality" seems silly.

To me, the key is that Apple has created something with astounding sound quality for its size. And flexibility. And price point.

If they scale it up it could very well be truly spectacular.
