Broadcast Mode is Klipsch’s own multi-speaker system on its Music City series (Austin, Detroit, Nashville), connecting multiple Broadcast Mode-enabled Klipsch speakers over mono audio. It is not Auracast, and it’s unrelated to Monster’s separate “Broadcast Mode” feature despite the shared name - the two do not interoperate.
3 ranked Klipsch speakers below support Broadcast Mode.
