How To Connect Multiple Bluetooth Speakers to a TV, PC, or Mobile Device

If you’re looking to get the party started or create a more immersive audio experience, one speaker won’t cut it. Most newer technologies have Bluetooth 5.0 capabilities to pair multiple devices, but not everyone has Bluetooth 5.0 enabled accessories.

Whether you have this handy feature or missing it, follow along to find out how you can connect multiple Bluetooth speakers to different devices.

Connect Multiple Bluetooth Speakers to TV

There are many different smart TV brands and models on the market. Not all of them can play dual audio, so it’s best to check the user manual or contact support to find out if your TV can. If your smart TV does support dual audio, the activation is pretty straightforward:

1. Go to Settings.
   
2. Tap the Bluetooth settings.
   
3. Select Advanced Bluetooth Options.
4. Choose Dual Audio.

If your TV doesn’t support dual audio, there is still a way to connect multiple speakers, but you’ll need a third-party app.

AmpMe is the way to go if you want to be able to use any speakers. This app isn’t exclusive to a single brand or model of speakers, so it’s quite versatile to use. At its core, this is a music syncing app that allows you to connect with other devices, including Bluetooth speakers.

If you’d like to go bigger, the Ultimate Ears’ BLAST & MEGABLAST app may be the option you need. It allows you to connect a larger number of speakers and offers a more immersive sound. The only downside is that you can only use speakers from Ultimate Ears’ range.

Our final suggestion, Bose Connect, allows you to connect two devices and features two modes. Party Mode allows you to sync the sound coming from both speakers. For a more immersive experience, Stereo Mode separates the audio into right and left channels.

Connect Multiple Bluetooth Speakers to iPhone

If you’re using the latest version of iOS, you shouldn’t have any trouble connecting multiple Bluetooth speakers. It’s best if the two speakers have similar specifications. If one speaker happens to be older than the others, it might not be able to communicate with them properly.

After connecting each Bluetooth speaker to your iPhone, follow these steps:

1. Play audio or video through one of the speakers.
   
2. Go to Control Centre.
3. Tap on the Airplay icon and select the linked speaker.
   
4. Select the Music icon to see devices playing music at the moment.
   
5. Click on the Share Song button.
   

If you’re using an older version of iOS, don’t sweat. You can still pair multiple Bluetooth speakers with third-party apps.

The AmpMe app enables you to connect any speakers of your choosing, and you can pair as many devices as you’d like. You can play music from various platforms like YouTube and Spotify or import it directly from your media library.

Another option to consider is the Bose Connect app. It allows you to connect two devices and also features two modes. Party Mode allows you to sync the sound coming from both speakers. For audiophiles, Stereo Mode separates the audio into right and left channels.

If, however, two speakers don’t quite satisfy your needs, Ultimate Ears has got you covered. They designed an app that allows you to connect multiple speakers, but they must be from the Ultimate Ears product line. Download the BOOM & MEGABOOM app, connect all your speakers and enjoy!

Connect Multiple Bluetooth Speakers Android

If your Android happens to be Samsung Galaxy S8 or later, you can use the company’s built-in Dual Audio feature to connect two speakers to your phone:

1. Go to Bluetooth settings and pair the speakers one by one.
   
2. Tap Advanced or the three-dot menu in the upper right corner.
   
3. Turn on the Dual Audio toggle switch.

If, however, you have another model, then third-party apps are the way to go.

The AmpMe app is your best option to connect multiple speakers from any model or brand. You can use this app to play music from various platforms like YouTube and Spotify or import it from your media library.

The Bose Connect app only works with Bose speakers, and it allows pairing two speakers max. However, it’s an appealing option as it features two modes of operation. Party Mode plays sound from both speakers together, while Stereo Mode separates the sound into left and right speakers.

Ultimate Ears is a company that creates portable speakers that can sync up through their BOOM & MEGABOOM app. The downside is that you can only use their speakers. But on the plus side, you can connect as many as you’d like and create quite an impressive audio experience.
