I have an old sound bar in my outdoor kitchen that I need to replace. I would like to get two soundbars (one for kitchen and one for gazebo, located on opposite ends of my pool) to create stereo sound. Is it possible to order two of the exact same sound bars and “link” them simultaneously to my phone to play music? If sound bar is not an option do you any of you guys have a recommendation on a couple of good speakers that are Bluetooth compatible that can hook up to a smart device to play music?

Very doubtful with a soundbar.

Are they hooked up to TVs? If not, look at JBL Bluetooth speakers. They offer some that are small, some large, some huge that do what you’re asking.

I don't know very much about them, but I think Sonos has that ability. We have a few Sonos experts on here, maybe they'll chime in...

Thanks. I heard JBL speakers can be linked. I’ll look into them

Sonos soundbars can “link” but one has to be hooked to a TV.

Sonos or Heos soundbars can be played separately or paired using any device / phone on the network.

Sonos ray is under $300. If one connected to a TV using HDMI arc then that TV is now a source that can be shared to any soundbar or sonos/Heos device on the network
