Smart speakers and digital assistants are at the heart of every smart home. In this video we compare the audio and sound quality of the new @googlenest Audio with the original Google Home. With the two speakers placed inside an acoustic chamber, recorded with a RØDE NTG1 professional shotgun microphone recording onto a Sony HXR-NX80, this video compares the sound quality from both devices by listening to two pieces of music from different genres to assess the difference in sound quality with the Nest Audio.
🎧 Wear headphones to listen to this video! We recommend the @Sony WH-1000XM4 Bluetooth noise-cancelling headphones: geni.us/WH-1000XM4
Read more about these headphones: www.switchedonnetwork.com/202...
The treble and bass on both speakers were set to 0, the volume set to 100% and the microphone was positioned to ensure it was the same distance from each speaker.

The original Google Home sounds pretty good for such a small speaker, but how does the new Nest Audio compare when it comes to listening to music and sound quality? The new, 2nd Generation Nest Audio sounds far better than the original Google Home from 2016; you can tell the difference straightaway, whether you're listening to music or podcasts - the new speaker has improved clarity across all tonal ranges and is clearer, deeper and more powerful and impressive in the low end.

I am SO grateful you made this video (so I didn't have to. Lol). Seriously, I can't believe the number of folks who just throw up a consumer camera with no awareness of AGC and think that anyone on UKposts can make an informed decision from that. This is exactly the way I would go about testing. While I realize most UKposts listening environments, including mine, will make the perfect conditions you've setup highly inaccurate, the benefit of what you've created lies in it's extreme usefulness (not it's accuracy). The Google Audio will sound even better when you bring it home! (As a 25-year audio/video pro I've always prided myself on the ability to see pixel-level blemishes and hear the tiniest distinctions. So I'm a bit sad to say that, at just 45 years old, the tone dropped out for me around only 13k. I'll blame my entry-level Onkyo speakers. Lol) Great video. Huge effort! Thanks again!

This video having only 300 views makes no sense at all. This is definitely the best comparison between these two speakers I have seen. I have been thinking about upgrading my Google Home for the past few weeks and now I am finally convinced that the new Nest Audio is worth it. Btw, I am 20yo and stopped hearing the sound at around 17kHZ although I don't think that this result is reliable since I watched the video on my phone's stereo speakers.

You need to display frequency response with the x axis on a log plot, not linear. That chart is focused on the top 20% of our hearing range. You can't see any detail in the mids and lows, so it's a bit useless. Most frequency response graphs show 1khz as the center frequency.

I don't know if this is true from the original Google Home and the Google Nest Audio, but me recently going from a Google Home Mini to Google Nest Audio (Nest on sale for $50), the reason I did it and the reason it is well worth it for me is the better microphones. You can say a command in a low voice, even from 20 feet away, and it picks it up accurately, even when the Google voice, alarm or music is playing. Makes it better for controlling smart lights etc, too. This is a good comparison for audio quality though. I'm spoiled there by $88/pair Bose desktop speakers I've used for years.

Excellent video. I own both of these units, now. I actually find the bass to be fuller with the older home, and with EQ I prefer it over the Nest so far, which is lacking in bass. But mids and highs are a bit clearer with the new nest. I understand placement can make a big difference. Can't seem to add a whole lot of bass to the Nest, and would argue it's not worth the money over a Nest Mini. I am deaf above 13k, anyway... old man listened to too much AC/DC!
@SwitchedOnNetwork

Thanks, glad you liked it! If you're finding the bass on your Nest Audio to be *less* than on the Home - even after EQing it - then I'd suggest it's faulty. There should be a night and day difference in favour of the Nest Audio there!

54 - silent at 15.5KHz using WF-1000XM3 (with an over the top harmonic spike sounding like 8KHz at 25% volume at around the 15KHz mark). Edit: just did the same test directly on my phone using a function generator app and lost it at 15.6KHz with the same earphones - so at least youtube is reproducing the signal pretty accurately, and the 8K harmonic may have been a youtube audio compression artifact. Interesting I've lost the 15.5K to 18K range in the last 5 years when I last did this test - must be getting old.

@@SwitchedOnNetwork I also have the WH-1000XM3, but prefer the WF in most situations (eg. public transport, etc) as they are so much more convenient, and I'm more likely to have them with me when needed. The WH cups your ears so the passive noise absorption is noticeably better than the WF earbuds, but the active noise cancellation does the trick if your earbuds fit snuggly. I use a larger right earbud than left earbud, as I have for years scratched that ear hole, and have made it bigger than the left - lol. Compared with the $25 cheap ebay earbuds I previously owned, the WF-1000XM3 is about 4 times louder, and generally about 4 times better, so the 10 times price difference (compared with the ebay cheapy's) is a hard pill to swallow, but that's the price of quality - take it or leave it.

I'm penniless after buying two google home devices in 2016 for $130 each. It is crazy what Google was asking for that speaker when it first came out. They haven't kept their resale value and they don't work nearly as well as the Nest Audio that is selling for $59 at the time of his writing. Plus, the Home speakers are cheaply made. Drop one to the floor and they are a goner.

Yeah, you can group different types of speaker but to make a stereo pair they have to be the same - because otherwise the stereo effect wouldn't be properly achieved and it would sound "off".

@SwitchedOnNetwork
@SwitchedOnNetwork 2 роки тому
Fair question to ask. The reason is because before making the video, I listened to both on 100% and could confirm that none of the problems you'd usually associate with more manually-operated speakers/amps being cranked to 100% were there, so I made the decision that it was fair game to test at. So I'm 99.999% certain that "100%" on these isn't true 100% of what they're theoretically capable of, but rather it's at the top end of the range you'd actually ever use on another system. So it's more like "100% of the usable range". Like they overprovisioned the speakers...

ha, I know! I honestly wasn't expecting so much of a difference until I got them side-by-side :) When the Nest Audio arrived and I first powered it up I could tell straight away it was superior, but just how superior quickly becomes apparent when you flip between them like this. Night and Day difference! How long can you hear the test tone for before it goes silent to your ears?

Yeah, Google did great with the new Audio indeed. By test tone you mean the 18:47 segment? Using earphone it became silent for me on 19:14 mark (somewhere between 7.3-7.4 mark in the graph)

Yes that's the one - interesting, not too dissimilar from my ears then!

You shouldn't play it in a dumped environemnt, they havent been enginiered to play in such an environment, but to work with the room acoutstics.

Yes but this was a controlled test to compare them directly to each other, removing other variables. How they sound in my particular room with all my own variables isn't of much interest or relevance to the wider audience, hence they're removed by adopting a more scientific approach.
