Vizio sound bar

I got my sound bar to work after a year of trying, it says it has a subwoofer, if there is one it must be behind the fireplace. Does anyone know?

Brand and model of RV may get you a more definitive answer from people with the same unit, but typically the sub woofer is indeed often found behind the fireplace or if no fireplace behind a wooden divider in the same area. Usually if there is no fireplace they put additional storage where the fireplace would be and separate the sub from the storage with a thin wooden divider.

We have a 2013 CC 34RLSA. Our subwoofer was/is in the floor level cabinet to the left as you face it next to the fireplace. It invariably gets shoved to the rear of the cabinet as we load up for travel. We rarely use the sound bar (never the subwoofer) although it does seem to provide a richer sound than the TV speakers. I agree with WFD that posting the brand/model/year of your fiver would help.

It's a 2013 year. I was going to put a new tv in for Christmas but money ran short, early next year for sure. I want to put in a 4k Sony in, it's a 49in, but it's the biggest I can put in camper, better speakers for sure. Get rid of sound bar. The Jensen is a good tv, 40in too but a 4k is nice too plus it's 3d.

Have a 36 RE subwoofer was in the right side of the lower compartment next to the Fireplace. Replaced my sound bar and subwoofer and added two stereo speakers dedicated to the radio. Sound bar just works with the TV.

What you have to do is go in your TV and cut off the sound in the TV , that will let the soundbar work. When I can I will get in the camper and tell you step by step, sometime tomorrow

You have to turn the television internal speakers off to get the sound through the soundbar.
