Question TV Sound too low

Any suggestions on how to increase sound volume on TV? It is very low at max level in Thor Tiburon.

You probably have done this, but here goes.

1. Try turning the volume up with the TV volume knob.
2. Replace remote, volume control could be bad.
3. Check settings for options for volume control, quiet time, sleep time.
4. Search web with model number explain problem, see what comes up.

Good luck

The best audio will come from a sound bar as the speakers face the viewer. With a Toslink optical connection there is no delay in the sound. I use the LG with a Bluetooth sub-woofer in the living room and LG without a sub-woofer in the bedroom. The reason for LG it they were the shortest I could find with a Toskink.

I installed a Roku soundbar, works well and get pretty loud.

I found that the TV in our RV has speakers facing downward, so with the RV mounted on a bracket just above the over-cab bunk, the sound is muffled. Plus it is a really cheap TV so I wouldn't expect much from it.

I plugged an inexpensive Bluetooth adapter into the TV's audio jacks so that the sound can be played through the receiver in the dash. This works okay but there is a noticable lag causing lip-sync issues.

So, when that bugs me, I have a 3.5mm cable plugged into the TV's headphone jack. I can unroll it and plug it into the jack on the receiver in the dash. This works without any noticable delay but the cable hanging down is a bit of a bother.

I did this as well. I was already streaming with Roku stick. However, Axxera has no code to be able to connect the Roku remote to.

Ah ... I got my Roku remote working with the Axxera TV by trying all the brand selections on the Roku. Sorry, I forget which specific one worked but it was one that starts with "S." So, try all the S brands (except Sony and Sanyo, it wasn't a major brand).

Someday I am going to replace the Axxera TV with one that has Roku built-in. I will probably try to pick one up during holiday sales. We added a TCL brand one to the RV's bedroom and have several TCLs at home that weren't expensive and work well.

Maybe the Seiki codes? Or Sansui? +1 for Roku TVs in the MH. We have a TCL in the bedroom and an Insignia in the living area. We especially like the OTA TV guide feature - just like a cable TV guide.

Seiki sounds familiar. But it shouldn't take long to try all the S brands - at least not as long as it took me starting with A! :-)

I called Axxera support after messing with it for a couple hours. They’re the ones that told me no code existed for on/off. But now that I think about it, there must be a code for the Axxera remote to work.

Our Axxera 614BH radio in the dash turns on with the Insignia Roku TV remote when the right button is pressed. Pretty annoying actually.

My Dish network remote worked with the TV before it went bad
