Joshua, When you pair the 2 devices that is what creates the stereo. You do have to have both speakers in the same room! I go into the Alexa app on my phone to do this. It doesn't require blue tooth.

If I had my own house, I'd have echo fourth gens in every room of my house. It would be great to go into the livingroom in the recliner and have the fourth gen echo on the table beside me.
