Ultimate Ears Wonderboom Pairing Two Speakers

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

Ultimate Ears Wonderboom Pairing Two Speakers: Step by Step 

1. Power Up Both Speakers

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

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

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

In this demo, we’ll first link the Ultimate Ears Wonderboom 1 speaker with our iPad Air tablet.  Now maybe you’re not sure how to connect your Ultimate Ears Wonderboom to a Bluetooth device. If you are not, then see our  How to Pair Ultimate Ears Wonderboom 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 Ultimate Ears Wonderboom 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 Ultimate Ears Wonderboom (the first version of this series).

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 Ultimate Ears Wonderboom, the Bluetooth lamp glows steadily.

5. Done with How to Ultimate Ears Wonderboom Pairing Two Speakers !

Your two Ultimate Ears Wonderbooms 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 Ultimate Ears Wonderboom speakers.

Note that each Ultimate Ears Wonderboom 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 Ultimate Ears Wonderboom.  Thus the first Ultimate Ears Wonderboom does not play only the left channel. Nor does the second play only the right. Instead, both Ultimate Ears Wonderbooms play both channels, in stereo, in fact.

Ultimate Ears Wonderboom Pairing 2 Speakers: Breaking the Connection

To break the pairing between the two Ultimate Ears Wonderboom 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.
