Connecting to two Bluetooth devices at same time

**lkillen** · #1 (**permalink**) 04-23-2011, 01:13 PM

I stream radio while riding the Harley through my s-9 headset. I would like my wife to be able to whatever I am listening too. Is it possible to connect to 2 BT haedsets at one time with the EVO? Does it take an alternate application?

i havent heard of it being done. certain headsets can be connected to multiple phones at once but I don't think it will work the other way around.

Stranbe since the roll of a phone is largely a transmitter. (in music mode)

The phone is not simply just a transmitter, in regards to BT. I believe when you use BT to output to an audio device, the phone creates a serial port to that BT device. Now I know it is possible to connect one headset in handsfree mode, while the other headset is in wireless headset mode. I've done it. You're best bet would be to go a wired method and just use a splitter.

Never heard of that but it might be possible.

I have tried that and the wired always wins out. I have never been able to run both a wired connection and BT together. If you can do it, can you walk me through it.

I doubt you can connect wired and wireless together, since one always locks out the audio for the other.

I have read and searched high and low to try and solve this very problem. I can't believe that there isn't a clear answer. I also was looking to stream my radio to my wife on her bike, although no Harleys, we ride GSX-Rs!

I would be interested in hearing what research you may have uncovered. Isn't it strange BT could be so limited? The last solution I tried to shake down was a kind of BT 'repeater' or a BT dongle that would mirror it's signal. Nothing like that exists. Our helmets have BT connectivity, so I have learned to settle on hearing her ramble on about mindless crap for hours over the mic.

The things we put up with for a piece of that apple pie.

You can receive sound though both bluetooth headsets at once with the use of 2 adapters.
