What's in here?

Here you go, I took a look for you......:E

mine was like that too!
I pulled the radio and found a 15' RCA cable that only needed to be 1' long but other than that, the whole area was empty.
I reworked it to make room for a VCR/DVD player and there's still room for more.

Forgot it even had an outside speaker. It is right there.

If they mounted a TV on the outside of the trailer LOL. What I would do and what I actually did was remove the panels and make a compartment to house the radio and wiring. Then use he new found space for anything you want to do with it. On my trailer they used up a huge storage space for my charger, converter, circuit breaker box, and it was closed up and very hot. I now have a place to store shoes and other things and the converter can breather better!

That's next on my agenda. I completely gutted one of these two years ago and have an idea of how sloppy everything is. I can barely get my 30 Amp cord into the bay and I'm sure there is a mess in there. I have to disassemble the sofa to remove the panel but it'll be fairly easy.

I may put a standard house hvac return grill on the front for simpler access in the future and to allow some airflow.

If the TV is on the other side of this compartment perhaps you can remove the TV SET and see the rear of this unit... TV may be a swing out thing...

The TV on the other side of the wall.

I would have to agree. If this is the case it sure is a waste of space.

Looking at the second picture, I think you could unscrew the side trim pieces and open it up for a peek.

My bet is that it's full of tangled up wires for your sound system,

Downtheroad's guess is correct; it's likely a rats nest of wires. I have a similar setup on my trailer and have had the radio out a couple times for various projects; one of which was to wire in a switch to kill the back lighting on the radio when I wasn't using it without killing power to it completely and losing the time and all my presets. Here's a pic I had handy showing the switch:
