Playing two Bluetooth devices simultaneously from iPhone and/or MacBook

My oldest is going to college soon, and as a graduation gift I got him wireless computer speakers and a wireless sub just so he can kick everyone else’s ass in the dorm.  No prob synching them both up and they both play individually via Bluetooth, but we’re having a hard time figuring out how to get them both to play simultaneously.  I think he’s got an iPhone 11 and the MacBook is relatively new so thinking they should have this capability and hoping someone here who’s been through this already might have some helpful tips.  Thanks for any help!

You need to connect the speakers and the sub to the bludento audio receiver and run everything from that, There is a delay with blutooth and you need to just use one endpoint. The sub has an RCA in and the speakers have an aux in. You need to use the RCA out of the bludento and get some y connectors that has both an RCA and a 3.5 mm connection.

I didn't see a 3.5mm output on the bluedento, only a coax out (digital).

Thanks for letting me know, you should get another splitter and use that sub your son didn't take yourself until he is ready for it. Check my profile you'll see I use a Klipsch sub too, I find them very smooth, hard to localize, and a nice upgrade for music and movies.
