2015 Sunseeker - Jensen TV sound

Did some searching and reading and still stumped...how do I get the sound on the TV to come out the overheard speakers/surround sound? I can only get sound from the (very inadequate) TV speakers.

Thanks!

This video is for the Magnadyne head unit...but TV would be the same for either. If you have a Jensen head unit, process is the same...just the menu may look different. Still AV1 or AV2 methinks.

Thanks very much...that looks like what I need. I do have the Jensen head unit. I'll give it a try when I get back to my coach this evening.

My surround speakers work on AV2. It is a pain using the volume controls on the dash but the speaker in the TV is not adequate.

There is a remote for the dash radio.

That works if you want to listen to TV while driving. I have kid that like to watch movies while I driving and the TV speakers suck if I do the set up as you mention then I cannot listen to radio in front cab as I only can hear the TV . Is there anyway to put better speaker to the Jensen tv or to separate overhead speaker to the TV?

See this related thread: http://www.forestriverforums.com/for...nes-61590.html
Using this approach, on my unit, I can add anything that uses a normal headphone jack - auxiliary speakers, sound bar, headphones, wireless headphones (may solve your problem).
Good Luck -

Just wanted to report back (sorry for the delay) that I tried the suggestions offered in this thread and am now no longer stumped

Sound working great from all sources (DVD, TV, ipod, radio, etc) thru the cab and overhead speakers. Minor changes to the balance and fade can adjust the volume if its too loud in the cab when going down the road.

And, best of all the sound quality and volume is vastly superior to the built in TV speakers.

Thanks!
