How to Connect Two Wonderbooms

Explains how to connect two Wonderbooms together so that they both play the same audio content from one source device. In this demo, we use one Wonderboom 1, and one Wonderboom 2 to show how connecting two wonderbooms works.  You can indeed mix and match.

How to Connect Two Wonderbooms: Step by Step 

1. Power Up Both Wonderbooms

We show the Power buttons on each of our Wonderbooms in the next pictures.

Press and release the Power button on the first one, and await the power-ON sound.

2. Connect the First Wonderboom with a Phone or Other Bluetooth Device

In this demo, we’ll first link the Wonderboom 1 speaker with our iPad Air tablet.  Now perhaps you’re not sure how to connect your Wonderboom to a Bluetooth source device. If so, then see our  How to Pair 1 Wonderboom Speaker   post for details.

3. Press and Release the Play / Pause Button on the First Speaker to Continue with How to Connect Two Wonderbooms

Next, press the middle (Play / Pause) area of the Wonderboom you just connected with your BT source device. Hold until the speaker makes a connect sound and the pairing lamp starts fast-flashing.  Here, our first speaker is the original Wonderboom (the first version of this series). And in the following picture, we show where to press.

4. Press the Play / Pause Button on the Second Wonderboom

Next, press and release the middle area of the second Wonderboom. Here, ours is the second version (Wonderboom 2). And in the next picture, we show where to press.

The speaker then makes a ready-to-connect sound. Also the pairing light just above the center button blinks briefly. Then, once this speaker connects with the first Wonderboom, its pairing lamp glows steadily.

5. Done with How to Connect Two Wonderbooms !

Your two Wonderbooms now share a connection. Thus, when you play audio on your source device, you’ll now hear it through both Wonderbooms.

Note that each Wonderboom provides stereo sound.  Furthermore this holds true even when you have two of them joined to each other. That is, each speaker provides stereo whether or not it connects to another. Thus it’s not the case that the first Wonderboom plays the left channel and the second plays the right. Both Wonderbooms play both channels, in stereo, in fact.





How to Connect Two WonderboomsBreaking the Two Wonderbooms, and then End that Connection

To break the connection between the two Wonderbooms, simply power down the second one.  After that, the first one (the one that you connected with your Bluetooth device) continues playing.

Now powering down the first one will also break the connection between it and the second speaker. Then the second one will stop playing.  But this also breaks the link with the source BT device.  So powering OFF the first speaker stops BOTH speakers. But the second one will still be ON until you turn it off.
