New 2016 26BH
Just bought our first travel trailer. We were tent campers for a long time and it was just time to get serious. So far, I love it. Couple issues to deal with but not bad. Ceiling speakers are terrible and some weatherstripping that needs fixing. We take her for the maiden voyage Friday the 13th...
Going to take it 1400 miles to Utah in June!

CONGRATULATIONS on your new Trailer!
When I get new trailers, I start a "Honey Do" list of issues I find for the service techs when I take it to get inspected (back at the dealer). I let them know ahead of time that not only are they doing the inspection but I have a list of issues and read it off to them, if the issues are not urgent. I do like the Jayco 2 year warranties. That gives you 2 years to find all issues and get them fixed.

Welcome and congratulations! I replaced the ceiling speakers the first year we had our 26bh because one had a torn cone from the factory and the others sounded like garbage.

What speakers did you use as replacements? Any good suggestions?

It came stock with 6" Furrion cieling speakers all of the 6.6" and 6.75" speakers I have found seem to small to fit.

TY for the reply. We just got our 32 out of winter storage this past Wed, but I didn't have time to measure yet.
Wonder if a "trim ring"/"adapter plate" to make the replacement speakers fit would work. Just need to try to make it look nice...
Way to many things to do, not nearly enough time... Lol My mod list seems to grow faster than I can get them done!
