Music and volume control works on both speakers together. Even though a user manually boosts the volume on one, the other follows the match. These settings are linked in the Home app, therefore setting up night mode or joining the preview program is definitely an all-or-nothing affair. Users can, however, restart them individually, and change the sound balance between right and left channel.
Users are able to use the options in the Google Home app to adjust bass, treble, and balance as well between the two speakers. And off course, there is another option to add the duo of speakers with other setups, or simply separate the pair and use as two separate mono speakers.
When stereo (pair) set up is applied, only the left channel will accept the voice commands, while the right channel has voice controls disabled. Generally, two speakers setup is designed to fulfill multi-room audio requirements, but this new feature provides an extra way to enjoy two speakers.
