    I looked at a bunch of car stereo options, but finding something with two zones was always the trick.

      If you're still looking, look at Marine Radio's. (The ones that go on boats)

      My last camper I was going to replace the radio, but I bought a new camper instead, isn't that how you are supposed to do it?

      I found Marine Radio's much more prevalent, and seemed to have better build quality.

        I have 22MLE with the Jensen JWM 41 and during my demo, I swear the tv was playing sound through the stereo system. I tried to do this for the first time yesterday and I have no idea why the tv won’t play through the speakers. I’ve checked connectivity with the wires and it seems I’ve tried every option and I just can’t seem to get the tv to play through the speakers. Any help would be appreciated! Than you in advance

          It will play through the speaker system when you play a dvd disc or a cd of course. The video signal is carried to the TV.

            Also, since you have looked, I'll assume there are RCA audio jacks on the TV. I do know there is an HDMI port but that isn't available on the Jenson. If there are the jacks (audio out), it would appear that you could then use the "audio in" jacks on the head unit. Basically the TV becomes a portable unit. You would need to set the TV up to use those jacks rather than the speakers. Have you tried that?

              I looked at my Jenson unit other night. There are RCA AUX IN jacks on the back. There is also a 3 mm AUX IN jack on the front bottom right corner of the head unit.

              ​My TCL television has a 3 mm headphone/audio out. No RCA jacks.

              To get television audio through my speakers I could either go with a 3 mm male/male audio cable and connect from the television audio out (headphone) to the Jensen AUX IN on the front of the unit. Or I could us the same 3 mm audio cable and add a 3mm to RCA male adapter to plug into the back of the Jensen unit.

              I would also recommend looking at a marine unit as an upgrade. If you can't find a zone A and B you could get a unit with front and rear (fade) and connect the outdoor and indoor speakers accordingly. This would also allow you to blend. So you could have a different volume inside and outside. Right now if you turn in zone A and B at the same time they are both at the same volume. Which may be too loud or to low for one zone or the other.
