Which Super C?
We started RV'ing about 10 years ago with a 5th wheel but want to upgrade. We are very interested in Super C's about 40'and our budget is up to 250,000. I need some help choosing. #1: I am looking at a new Seneca 37TS but see that the Entera or Accolade look very much the same. Are those the same RV's under a different name? #2 What about the Dynamax? They cost a little more, is it worth the difference? #3 Is there any other brand I should consider? We are really set on that size, heavy duty chassis and engine and do not want to go over budget.3.8KViews0likes8CommentsRe: Connecting subwoofer to new stereo
Thanks for the answers above. As I said, I am not an expert in that field and I should have asked for advice here instead of believing the RV repair guys. I am not an audiophile and I don't use the stereo that much: news, talk shows and once in a while a movie. If I care, I will one day replace the Jensen with a 5.1 system. Or install that crossover system.412Views0likes0CommentsRe: Connecting subwoofer to new stereo
Some good advice already, thank you. About the Jensen: I was at an RV repair place in Sebastian FL, had them do a lot of work for a couple 1000's $ but they asked about $ 650.00 to replace the old stereo. They recommended the Jensen unit that it is sold on Amazon for 165. They said that was the standard replacement. I go camping to be in nature not to listen to the stereo but my wife likes to watch a movie sometimes. I can live without the subwoofer but I will check the cross-over solution. I have to learn what it is first. I am good at designing boats but don't have a clue about all those wires . . .412Views0likes0CommentsConnecting subwoofer to new stereo
The answer may be very simple to many of you but I don't have a clue. I got rid of the infamous Concertone XZ700 that came with my 5th Wheel and bought a Jensen JWM60A. Installation was easy but I don't know how to connect the subwoofer. The ZX700 had a special connector for it with 2 wires. I don't see anything like it on the Jensen. Out of the 3 zones on the Jensen, I use only zone A. It has connectors for 2 pairs of speakers, miss the center one, no big deal. What I miss is the subwoofer. Should I connect it to the speaker wires on zone B for example and turn the 2 zones on? Would that work? I think it's what's called a self powered subwoofer.1.4KViews0likes7CommentsRe: how far to drive every day
When I was younger, I did Brussels-Istanbul (1,500 miles) in two days, very little sleep. Those were bad dangerous roads and many borders stops in weird countries. Did it several times. Now, 45 years later, in the US, I don't like to drive more than 300 miles (the 6 hours rule). I prefer to go slower: 300 miles then stop 2 days. I am slowing down. Soon, I will be at 200 miles a week. And that is if we want to move.428Views0likes0Comments
