Introducing: Our Brand New Bluetooth Speakers

[professor]

Fine, if its kids they just want it loud and a nanometer from eardrum, ideally eyes closed or looking at a phone near a cliff edge or busy traffic.

speaking of which (pun) wouldn’t it be cool if you could daisy-chain the BT so they forward the sound on, like a mesh, then you could get more coverage? I’d have thought the tricky secret sauce is for them to sync so they all sound as one?

There are a few models that do this. I don’t think Anker makes them though (hint hint)

@AnkerOfficial if you read that post, then… yeah, my father (and family) would love that.

[Yosef_Schmukler]

what @ryandhazen said, but that would be pretty awesome on an Anker speaker.

@ndalby shows how to sync two speakers to an expensive PC

Yep, it can be done pretty easy on MacOS, possibly on Windows with third party software / plugins…

Tutorial: Pairing 2 BT Speakers For Multi-Room Playback (MacOS)

Recently had a colleague ask me the dreaded question ‘Can you connect 2 Bluetooth speaker’s to a single device for playback, you know like for multi-room use…”. Now normally it’s a gritted teeth response as it’s an iPhone, Android Phone or at a push a laptop (Windows) which is the device their wanting to use. Luckily for them they had a MacBook Pro Now since they were a Mac enthusiast and had no clue this could be done I thought the following little tutorial might help you guys; if …

expensive PC

Careful, you might start the ‘what is a PC?’ argument again

its inside every MAC now. Minus the white outer wrapping cost $1000

When you get given Windows - fdisk. I have Ubuntu on Thinkpad and its Linux under the Chromebook hood. Wow I wonder how many Chromebooks I can buy for one Mac? 10?

Minus the white outer wrapping cost $1000

Nothing wrong with wrapping, most stores charge

Wow I wonder how many Chromebooks I can buy for one Mac? 10?

Possibly but what would you want 10 for, isn’t one enough? Well you could do this…

On a serious note though, the iMac’s do hold value well, my first was bought at £1200, sold three years later for £800

It’s also getting closer to 500, come on guys and gals, post some proper Father’s Day or speaker talk to have a good chance at winning

[professor]

When you get to near message 500, there are folks ready

[gAnkster]

post some proper Father’s Day or speaker talk to have a good chance at winning

Nah, there are too many Schmuklers to contend with. Schmuklers also have an insatiable urge for BT speakers.

[Yosef_Schmukler]

I doubt my siblings will try today, so you got a better chance, don’t give up so soon man

[gAnkster]

don’t give up so soon man

…literally 400 posts later.

[cava3395]

According to Anker yes they are

[Yosef_Schmukler]

That made me laugh

[ndalby]

also are you sure they are randomly picking?

Your post should be meaningful and interesting for that winning number. Any off-topic discussion, should be done via private messages. Otherwise, your winning chance will not be counted and we will randomly select some decent comments instead to win!

Yep, they updated the rules overnight with the influx of random (or spam, take your pick ) comments…

or speaker talk

there is plenty of speaker talk going on, just by a very few people.

So who was the father of the speaker?

Loudspeaker

[greengiant1969]

So out of the three speakers being given away which one is the best?

[professor]

The claim is the pro is the best, but some reviews say otherwise. We’ve been aware of these products coming for a couple of months.

[mmengel770]

i think other than speakers, anker should open up to the headphone field (not earbuds). if u agree, what features do you think it should have?

ps. this may not be considered on topic because its headphones not speakers but i put it so it can pipe up discussion
