Let's look at how to connect two sets of AirPods to your Mac so you can listen to music together wirelessly.

Pair two AirPods to One Mac

To connect two sets of AirPods or other headphones to a MacBook or desktop Mac and share audio with a friend, we'll make a virtual audio device in Audio MIDI Set up, send the sound from both sets of AirPods to it, and then choose this device in the system volume menu. To make a virtual device that can play multiple music files, do the following:

• Open a new Finder window, click Applications on the left, and then open the Utilities folder.
• To start Audio MIDI Setup, double-click it in the Utilities folder. You can also use Spotlight search on your Mac to open Audio MIDI Setup.
• Click the plus (+) button in the lower-left corner of the Audio MIDI Setup window and choose Create Multi-Output Device from the menu that appears.
• Check the boxes next to the two sets of AirPods or other headphones you want to use on the right.
• Select Multi-Output Device from the list on the left, click it to change your virtual audio device, and press Enter. Give it a name that tells what it's about, like "Shared Headphones."
