Connecting two speakers (Speaker Add function)
By using the Speaker Add function on the h.ear go 2 (SRS-HG10) , you can enjoy more expanding stereo sound even when the speaker is not connected to a network.
Two h.ear go 2 (SRS-HG10) are required.
- Place the speakers at a distance 1 m (3 ft) or less from each other, and then turn on them.
The (power) indicators light up in green.
- On each speaker, press the FUNCTION button repeatedly until the BLUETOOTH indicator flashes.
When you turn on the BLUETOOTH mode, the speaker will try to make a BLUETOOTH connection with the last connected BLUETOOTH device.

When you want to connect another BLUETOOTH device, terminate the current BLUETOOTH connection by operating the currently connected BLUETOOTH device.

The (right)/ (left) indicators flash for a few seconds, and then light up.

- Set up the second speaker within 1 minute. If you do not set it up within 1 minute, the setting of the first speaker will be canceled.

When the BLUETOOTH connection is established, the BLUETOOTH indicator of the speaker stops flashing and lights up.

- The power of both speakers can be turned off by operating one of the speakers (Power Interlock).
