When integrating an audio video system into a recreational vehicle special care must be taken. With today's manufactures offering 12volt standard and marine grade systems, adding indoor/outdoor audio was never easier. There are many options for your video source, most trailer parks offer cable TV. A typical source would be a DVD/CD or Blu-ray player, remember when making your choice that you can play all types of audio and video on a Blu-ray but can't play Blu-ray on a DVD/CD player. Most new RV's come with a stock stereo system of some sort, but the quality isn't there (if it is turned up loud it crackles and sounds distorted). Just like the video system your audio can be sourced. This car sound or most commonly known by many people as audio system is also a famous choice amongst car owners.
Select the type of components that will be used for your audio system and consider the type of installation of the system. There are two kinds of audio inputs that are available, first are dedicated audio inputs such as the TOSlink, short for Toshiba Link, TRS Cable (commonly known as Stereo cable), Coax (Otherwise known as RCA stereo Audio Inputs) and S/PDIF. While Audio & Video signal is frequently shared over one cable, such as the Component Video or HDMI.
Dedicated audio inputs can be further divided into two categories, digital and analog. Both TOSlink and S/PDIF are digital technologies, while TRS and RCA Stereo Audio Inputs are analog. Also, digital cables minimize the use of cables vis-a-vis analog cables, as instead of running 6 analog cables (for six channels) for a surround sound system, only a single digital cable is required, without any worry of channel swapping.
Also, with analog cables, the type of application and equipment will also limit your choices for example, when comparing analog cables for audio signal transmission it is important note that on LCD TV sets TRS inputs are usually only usable when connected with a PC using an SVGA input for video input. While most RCA Stereo Audio inputs are not tied to any incoming Video Signal.
Consequently, you may want your Home theater system's audio input on TOSlink for best results, while downgrading to RCA when used with your Video Camera for quick presentations.
