Great Job!
Found the company, asked a few questions, got the box, mailed it off… and got it back a lot sooner than expected.

Company details
Written by the company
Minn-Tech is an independent electronic repair shop in Saint Paul, Minnesota, dedicated to one thing: keeping the original Apple HomePod playing. Apple discontinued the first-generation HomePod in 2021, but many owners still prefer its rich sound, and we believe a great speaker shouldn’t end up in a landfill because of a small, fixable fault. Our mail-in service covers the HomePod’s most common failures, including no power, loud pops and crackles (aka “death farts”), missing bass, blinking lights, and bootloops. We don’t simply swap failed parts for identical ones. Where a known weak point exists, such as the power diode, we install an upgraded component built to outlast the original. Pricing is fixed by symptom and includes two-way shipping, so there are no surprise costs. We email a prepaid shipping label within 24 hours, most repairs are back with customers in under two weeks, and every repair carries a one-year warranty. We also offer preventive maintenance and refurbished HomePods. We value professionalism, and are founded by former professional corporate executives to help younger generation develop good business acumen. Customers nationwide trust us, with a 5.0 Google rating across more than 200 reviews. Minn-Tech is independent and not affiliated with Apple.

Thanks Tanner! We appreciate you and your kind feedback.
Outstanding Service, Lightning-Fast Turnaround!
I cannot say enough good things about Minn-Tech! I sent them my original Apple HomePod for repair, and they had it fixed and shipped back in record time. Their professionalism, communication, and attention to detail were absolutely outstanding.
Not only did they diagnose and repair the problem, but they also replaced four failing capacitors, upgraded the woofer's deteriorating foam ring, and even proactively replaced a potentially problematic diode to prevent future issues. They went above and beyond what I expected, including doing additional preventative work at no extra charge.
They also updated the software and thoroughly tested the HomePod before shipping it back. I really appreciated receiving a detailed explanation of everything they did rather than just being told it was fixed.
It's rare these days to find a company that takes this much pride in its work and genuinely cares about its customers. Instead of throwing away an expensive piece of Apple equipment, Minn-Tech gave it a new lease on life.
If you have a HomePod that needs repair, don't hesitate to send it to Minn-Tech. Their turnaround time, expertise, honesty, and customer service are second to none.
I would absolutely use them again and recommend them to anyone. Five stars all day long!
