TWS

True Wireless Stereo (TWS)
This speaker includes a True Wireless Stereo (TWS) function.
This function allows you to wirelessly connect another BS-200 Bluetooth speaker to double the power and perform a stereo system separating the left and right channels.
In order to do this, turn on both your BS-200 Bluetooth speakers at the same time. After a few seconds they will automatically synchronize, then the blue led indicator will blink in one speaker and stay on in the other.
Connect your smartphone via Bluetooth to the master loudspeaker by accessing the settings of your smartphone and selecting AIWA BS-200.
From then on you can stream via Bluetooth and both units will sound at the same time.
TWS mode allows you to change the track and modify the volume from either speaker. The selected volume is common to both speakers, that is to say, when raising the volume in one of the two speakers you will be raising the volume of both devices at the same time.

Note: This function is only available in Bluetooth mode.
