wanted to check my logic, or am i wrong.
If I connect a bluetooth speaker to a music source, i can stream music.
Would by the same logic can I connect say 4 bluetooth speakers to the same source thereby creating a surround sound experience?
Was just wondering
 
If you were able to connect 4x bluetooth speakers to one source, you'll only be able to hear same sound on all four speakers at the same time. You will however not experience surround sound.

Surround sound (like a 5.1 setup) involves a soundtrack which is recorded in 6 dedicated channels (5.1). You'll need a device to decode or process the source and direct the correct sound to each speaker (Front Left, Centre, Front Right, Left Surround, Right Surround + Sub-woofer).

I've never been able to connect a source to multiple bluetooth devices - usually you'll have to disconnect the one device in order to connect it to the next. The closest you'll be able to come is with Samsung's Group Play which streams the same audio source via a couple of devices.
