Abstract: [Problem] To provide an audio communication system wherein a relaying device is connected to terminal devices, which are communication devices, via a communication network and wherein the relaying device is caused to manage the group of the terminal devices. [Solution] An audio communication system comprises: a master relaying device; one or more slave relaying devices connected to the master relaying device via a communication network; and one or more terminal devices connected to each relaying device via a communication network. Each slave relaying device transfers, to the master relaying device, audio signals received from the terminal device in charge of the slave relaying device. The master relaying device transfers the audio signals, which were received from each slave relaying device, to the slave relaying devices other than that slave relaying device.
