Pairing two Soundcore 2s together

#1

In early 2019, I purchased a Soundcore 2 from Amazon. The listing says:

" [Anker Soundcore 2 Portable Bluetooth Speaker with Superior Stereo Sound, BassUp Technology, 12-Watts, IPX5 Water-Resistant Shower Speaker, 24-Hour Playtime, Wireless Speaker for Home,Outdoors,Travel] "

I am looking to purchase another Soundcore 2 to have two speakers playing at once, and I want to make sure I am getting the correct thing, in case the version I purchased was an older one and would be unable to be paired to another one.

Does this product: https://www.anker.com/products/variant/soundcore-2-portable-bluetooth-speaker/A3105015 pair with the other Soundcore 2 I bought? If not, where can I get a Soundcore 2 that would pair with it?

Hi @zane.harvey
I understand only the ā€œupgradedā€ soundcore speaker has the ability to pair.
But Iā€™m happy to stand corrected.

As mentioned by @paulstevenewing only the upgraded release of the Soundcore 2 has the ability to be paired with another Soundcore 2

Hmm, I remember when I originally purchased my first speaker a couple years ago, it said it had the ability to be combined with another Soundcore 2, which is why I searched this specific model back out. Does that mean the link I attached should pair with it? Or am I mistaken? Thank you!!

I donā€™t know if the first one I purchased was the ā€˜upgradedā€™ one or notā€“and Iā€™m not sure how to tell based on the listing.

Now thereā€™s a great question.
Iā€™ve trawled the internet and can see the upgraded model number is 3105.
But not sure if they both share the same! I canā€™t find much information on the non upgraded version.
If I find something Iā€™ll update.

If your original Soundcore 2 purchase was the upgraded model, then yes it will pair using TWS (True Wireless Stereo).

Best way to find out if your original speaker is an original or upgraded model would be to drop service@soundcore.com an email with your speakers serial number and they will be able to confirm the revision.

Wanted to give yā€™all an updateā€“thank you both for helping me!

I sent a couple of emails and ended up calling customer service with my questionsā€“my current speaker is apparently a 3rd iteration, which is no longer being sold by Anker, who is now on iteration 5 for this model, which would not be compatible with my model. (I ended up making the double speaker cyber Monday purchase I was hoping to avoid, though I am sure I will find another use for my current speaker at some point. Canā€™t turn down a discount price of $29.99 per unit cyber Monday deal!)

I have purchased 2 upgraded soundcore 2s in 2020 but I am having difficulty pairing the two and the instructions provided are very vague. How do you actually pair the 2 speakers?
