6.2. TWS (True Wireless Stereo) Pairing
TWS allows you to pair two SOBERNA M10 speakers together for a stereo sound experience.

- On one of the speakers (this will be the primary speaker), double-press the Power button. The speaker will enter TWS pairing mode.
- The two speakers will automatically search for and connect to each other. You will hear a confirmation tone once connected.
- Once TWS paired, connect your device to the primary speaker via Bluetooth as described in Section 6.1.

6.5. Light Modes
The speaker features colorful flashing lights. The lights typically synchronize with the music or can be cycled through different modes.
