Guide for Windows Device with Bluetooth 5.0 and Higher Version

When you’re using a device with the latest version of Bluetooth, you’re in luck because devices with Bluetooth 5.0 or later are much easier to set up with this configuration. Here’s what you need to do:

  1. Press the Windows Key + X and head over to your Device Manager from the options
  2. Double-click on the Bluetooth option and expand
  3. Right-click on your Bluetooth adapter and click on Properties
  4. Navigate to the Advanced tab and look at the LMP value
  5. If your LMP Value is at 9, then your device is Bluetooth 5.0.
  6. Go to your Bluetooth screen in settings
  7. Connect the two devices at once and they should work just fine

Use the Accompanying App from your Speaker Manufacturer to Play Music on Multiple Audio Devices

If you can’t quite get the Bluetooth to work with multiple devices, you may be in luck if your speaker manufacturer provides an app that allows you to connect to multiple audio devices at once. For example, BOSE has this feature for their speakers as well as JBL, Beats, Harman Kardon and other known industry players.

Not all speakers offer this feature, and even when they do, it is usually only available for certain Apple and Android devices. You’ll need to do a slight bit of research to ensure that your device is compatible with this feature.

Bluetooth is still easing out a couple of things, but the technology has significantly improved over the years. For that, there’s no doubt that people using Bluetooth 5.0 and higher are having a swell time. If you want to enjoy the ultimate Windows listening experience, this guide should help you out!
