After a few weeks of living with it I happened to stumble across the culprit while playing classical: Apple Music ATMOS. I had played an older classical piece that was non-ATMOS, and it had depth and satisfying bass. I then happened to play the Star Wars: A New Hope theme song for my boys, and it sounded awful--weak, thin. Compared the two, saw the older track was not ATMOS. Turned off ATMOS in the Home app settings, and the Star Wars theme sounded great, proper body and depth to the song. Maybe this isn't an issue with stereo pair HomePods, I only have one so I can't test that. I would say it is worth turning off ATMOS in the Home app if you run a single HomePod Gen 2 to see if it makes a difference:
Home app > three-dot circle in the upper right > Home Settings. Under the People section, tap your Apple account name. Under Connected Media, tap Apple Music. Toggle off Dolby ATMOS.

I see they want you to log in or create a new account to proceed to checkout.
Has anyone that isn't a Verizon customer successfully bought one ?
[edit] Process was easy.
Created new account in seconds.
Got 2.
Bigger problem is when they arrive and my wife asks why I've yet again bought speakers when I already have so many.
Little does she know that I'll be getting some Klipsch RF-7 III (and matching center + sub) when next I find a deal on them.

My only issue is iirc as usual these days Apple decided its customers don't need/deserve choices and didn't give it the typical array of audio inputs it competitors would have
Tried multiple methods. All get this error. Dead?
Snagged 2 for the TV
3D spatial sound from just one HomePod mated to an appletv4k?
And all that plus Atmos?
Bull, or accurate, or sorta?
