Sound system

I was wondering. We bought a Vibe 30bhs and we have been having trouble with the speaker system. It is not very loud. With the A/C on it is very hard to hear the TV. Our old Forrest River camper was very loud. I was wondering if anyone has had issues with this or have any ideas what to do?

We also have a 308bhs, our surround sound is not loud. It will be turned all the way up and if a/c or heater is on, it is very hard to hear.

You may also want to pull the unit and completely redo all the connections. FR uses crimped connections and many times the connections are poor for a variety of reasons. This is not a hard job and if you redo one connection at a time, there is no chance of a mistake.

I use the audio out on the TV for audio while watching a movie or program. The Bose soundbar has bluetooth capability, so we use our phones for listening to pandora or itunes. Next time Im at my trailer I will take some photos of how I mounted unit

We have a 17 287QBS, and sound is horrible, not to mention the top of the line DVD player.

Since people are talking about the sound system. Anyone seen a decent replacement that does Bluray?
Anyway to hook up a regular bluray to the RV only tv?
