UE Wonderboom 2 Pairing Two Speakers

Describes how to pair 2 UE Wonderboom 2 speakers such that they both play the same audio content from one source device.  Here we have one UE Wonderboom 2 1, and one UE Wonderboom 2 2 speaker to show how pairing 2 UE Wonderboom 2 speakers works. But of course you can also pair two UE Wonderboom 2 1’s or two UE Wonderboom 2 2’s.

UE Wonderboom 2 Pairing Two Speakers: Step by Step

1. Power Up Both Speakers

We show the Power buttons on each of our UE Wonderboom 2s in the next pictures.

Press and let go of the Power button on the first one, and await the power-ON sound.

Then, press and release the Power button on the second UE Wonderboom 2, and again, wait for it to come on.

2. UE Wonderboom 2 Pairing Two Speakers: Pair the First with a Source Device

In this demo, we’ll first link the UE Wonderboom 2 1 speaker with our iPad Air tablet.  Now maybe you’re not sure how to connect your UE Wonderboom 2 to a Bluetooth device. If you are not, then see our  How to Pair UE Wonderboom 2 Speakers with Bluetooth Devices   post for details.

3. Press and Release the Play / Pause Button on the First Speaker

Next, press the middle (Play / Pause) area of the UE Wonderboom 2 you just connected. Then hold until the speaker makes a pairing sound and the Bluetooth lamp starts fast-flashing.  In this scenario, our first speaker is the original UE Wonderboom 2 (the first version of this series).

4. Press the Play / Pause Button on the Second UE Wonderboom 2

Next, press and release the middle area of the second UE Wonderboom 2.  In this scenario, ours is the second version of the UE Wonderboom 2 (Wonderboom 2).

The speaker then makes a ready-to-connect sound. Then the pairing light just above the center button blinks briefly.  Finally, once this speaker pairs with the first UE Wonderboom 2, the Bluetooth lamp glows steadily.

5. Done with How to UE Wonderboom 2 Pairing Two Speakers !

Your two UE Wonderboom 2s now share a common pairing with the source device.  Thus, when you play audio on your source device, you’ll now hear it through both UE Wonderboom 2 speakers.

Note that each UE Wonderboom 2 provides stereo sound. And this holds true even when you have two of them joined to each other.  In other words, each speaker provides stereo whether or not it connects to another UE Wonderboom 2.  Thus the first UE Wonderboom 2 does not play only the left channel. Nor does the second play only the right. Instead, both UE Wonderboom 2s play both channels, in stereo, in fact.

UE Wonderboom 2 Pairing 2 Speakers: Breaking the Connection

To break the pairing between the two UE Wonderboom 2 speakers, simply power down the second one.  After that, the first one (the one that you paired with your Bluetooth device) continues playing.

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