I want to buy two HomePod Mini's to go with my Stereo pair of HomePods connected to my Apple TV.

I'm waiting to buy two HomePod Mini's because my intention is to add them to my current stereo pair of Apple TV speakers for true surround sound.


Can anyone tell me when Apple will allow four HomePods to be used for true surround sound with Apple TV?

You can still use all 4 with AirPlay

  1. Do either of the following:
    • Press and hold the TV  button on the Siri Remote to open Control Center, then select the Audio Controls button .
    • If you see the Audio Controls button  in an app, select it.
  1. A list of available audio devices appears, organized by room (as assigned in the Home app on your iOS, iPadOS, or macOS device).
