A SoundTouch system with Bluetooth can send the sound it’s playing from a connected Bluetooth device to the other SoundTouch systems on your network—even if those other systems don’t support Bluetooth.

Before you begin:
Make sure you have a SoundTouch system that supports Bluetooth. If you aren’t sure, see SoundTouch systems with Bluetooth connectivity
To re-broadcast Bluetooth audio to multiple systems:
- Pair your Bluetooth device to your SoundTouch system. For help, see Pairing a Bluetooth-enabled device using the SoundTouch app
- At the bottom of the app, tap or click the system name to open the system controls
- Swipe the system icons left or right to find your SoundTouch system with Bluetooth
- Below the volume slider, select the “+” sign to the right of the desired system names that you want to hear, or choose “PLAY ALL” to hear all systems
Tips for managing grouped systems
- You can add as many systems as you have on your network to a group or you can quickly add all systems by selecting “PLAY ALL”
- Remove a system from a group by clicking or tapping a system the “X” next to that system’s name
- Each grouped SoundTouch system has its own volume control. There is a master volume control below the systems to raise or lower the volume of all systems in the group, keeping their volume relative to each other
- Bluetooth has a range of about 9 metres, which can be reduced by interference from things like walls or doors. While streaming Bluetooth, keep the Bluetooth device within 9 metres of the host to maintain the device’s Bluetooth connection
