Abstract
A system and method includes a first audio device (e.g., a primary wireless earbud) connected to a second audio device (e.g., a secondary wireless earbud) using a first wireless connection. The first audio device is also connected to a user device (e.g., a smartphone or smart watch) using a second wireless connection. The second audio device receives data, such as packets, sent from the third device to the first device by monitoring the second wireless connection. If a signal quality of the second wireless connection as determined by the first and/or second audio device changes, the first and/or second audio device may exchange primary/secondary roles and/or enable or disable wireless signal amplifiers.
