    Hello,

    Windows 10 does not directly allow streaming to two Bluetooth devices simultaneously.

    To connect multiple speakers via Wi-Fi, you will need a system compatible with multi-room capabilities like Sonos, Google Cast, or Apple AirPlay.

    If your speakers support multi-room technology, you can set them up via the manufacturer's dedicated app (Sonos, Google Home, etc.). After the setup:

    Open the software or app on your PC.
    Add the speakers to a group or configure multi-room playback.
    Use this app to control the sound played on all speakers simultaneously.

    Hello,

    I don't think it's possible directly through Windows (I don't use BT, so I don't know if it can be done via that connection method). For example, in Windows Explorer when I right-click / play on the device, I see 3 devices, 2 speakers and the hi-fi system, which are connected via Wi-Fi and Ethernet on my local network.

    My 2 speakers can be configured/paired to act as a single device; in this case, it is seen as a single input. You should check if your speakers have such a function.

    To create a group (hi-fi system + the 2 speakers), I created a group on my Android phone using Google Home. This groups the 3 devices, which will play the same thing. This group can be accessed through Google Caster functions. For example, it's available from the phone or on my PC with VLC which, via Playback/Renderer, streams music to my "Multirooms" group:
