Abstract

Embodiments of wireless audio systems and methods for wirelessly communicating audio information are disclosed herein. In one example, a wireless audio system includes a first and a second wireless headphones and a charging case. The first wireless headphone is configured to establish, with an audio source, a first short-range wireless connection and transmit communication parameters associated with the first short-range wireless connection to the charging case. The charging case is configured to receive the communication parameters associated with the first short-range wireless connection and transmit the communication parameters associated with the first short-range wireless connection to the second wireless headphone. The second wireless headphone is configured to receive the communication parameters associated with the first short-range wireless connection and establish, with the audio source, a second short-range wireless connection based on the communication parameters associated with the first short-range wireless connection.
