OMG - someone please help! I am wanting to buy a 19" flat screen tv with a built in DVD player for my horse trailer. All the reviews I am seeing is that they don't have very good sound. I have purchased a Toshiba but the sound quality is horrible. Are there any that you recomend?

Most TVs with built in speakers are too small to produce a quality sound experience. But most of the TV units have out put jacks, with a source that can be routed to a separate amplifier and sound system. We did this recently, by using an aftermarket automotive radio and speaker system as a final driver. It works well, and accepts most auxiliary inputs such as I pods.

we have had that same problem and paid about $99 for the "wireless" speakers that you can get at Best Buys or probably anywhere...pretty neat - you can add 2 speakers and a remote and use them anywhere in your trailer - makes "surround sound" - you plug them into outlets or put batteries in them and the remote "pod" plugs into the tv. Happy Shopping!

Oh thanks! The model I got is 19LV610U and I am not sure if you can add speakers. I thought I read somewhere about that so I was planning on taking it back but I will ask when I do. I am not a gadget guru so simple is better!
