  1. Hi there.. this is Ken (Tina's hubby) helping to clarify what Tina wrote in her #2 point above about "removing the front panel of the FURRION".... It's not hard to do, but first you would have to remove the cover plate that snaps off/on around the perimeter of the Furrion, then remove the 4 screws holding the Furrion in place, then slide it out. Then, make sure the audio cables coming from the TV output jacks are plugged into the Auxiliary IN jacks on the Furrion. As she mentioned, the audio cable was not plugged into the OUT jacks on the TV, and it was plugged into the incorrect jacks on the Furrion.
  2. sorry for the confusion about july. my comment was in reference to the comment by topgun: Matt, If you read this, could the quality assurance people at the plant address the issue of the cables from the TV to the stereo speakers being installed incorrectly? I have a feeling since so many people have had issues similar to ours that this may be need to be addressed with the tech handling the AV installation on the trailers. FYI for your techs: During our troubleshooting we found: 1. the output cables from the JENSEN TV were plugged into the incorrect jacks on the TV itself. 2. the front panel of the FURRION receiver had to be removed in order to check the input cables which were also found to be plugged in incorrectly. 3. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND MAKING SURE THIS SET UP IS COMPLETE AND WORKING AS PART OF THE DELIVERY DAY PROCESS. This was not tested during our delivery day and our troubleshooting took place our first night in a memphis campground. 4. for trailers already delivered, i believe it should be easy enough to walk the owners over the phone to make sure the set up is correct before referring anyone to an outside repair tech. a video of the correct installation of the cables would be even better:)
  3. CHECK CABLES ARE CORRECTLY PLACED: OUTPUT FROM TV AND INPUT INTO RECEIVER. Hi everyone, We had a real B(*^% of a time getting the sound from the TV to the speakers. We spent quite a bit of time reading, researching and trouble shooting but the fix? the cables on the output from the tv were placed incorrectly AND the input from the tv to the receiver were incorrect. it's an easy enough DIY fix if you are tech savvy. if you want to wait until july for OTT to fix, ask them to look at the cable inputs/outputs. and if you can't wait, i'm sure a best buy tech or any audio-visual store could help trouble shoot.
  4. hi everyone, hope marsharini doesn't mind my screen shot of their lovely king bed configuration:)! the screen shot indicates where 2 of our optional outlets were placed by OTT. they are very easy to get to in the king bed configuration. a couple of thoughts after camping a few nights in our OTT. see the clear storage bin underneath marsharini's king bed set up? that extra storage feature seems minor but sure is immensely helpful when we are camping. it gets things out of the way but still easily accessible without having to go outside to the truck to retrieve something. also of note, i do love that twin bed conversion ridgwayk showcased in the video he attached. keep in mind though that an extra mattress is another item you have to store (most likely in your tow vehicle). after taking down and setting up the bed just once or twice we found it to be more trouble than it is worth and agree that the smaller dinette area is more than enough seating for us - the added storage below is quite nifty:)! so, if maximizing seating is priority for you then i highly recommend the twin bed configuration but if sleeping comfortably is key, you can't beat the king bed configuration (ken is 6'5" and 250ish so twin beds were a definite no-go for us!) hope that helps somehow!
