Hi all

Hoping someone can give me pointers about 12v televisions.

After many years of resisting it wife and I have finally purchased a Cello 22" 12v Television.

Problem is with the sound. On a telly programme sound level is quite acceptable, unfortunately when playing a DVD it's very low and I struggle to hear it.

I've tried fiddling with all the settings but can't improve it.

My question is, do you think the telly is faulty and should I return it under complaint, or is this normal and to just get an amplified sound bar ?

...............

That is normal for those TVs. We use a small Bose sound bar for sound. Works a treat.

Thanks for reply Ian, much appreciated. I'll just get a sound bar, they're
only £50 on ebay.

I have a 12V Medion TV from Aldi the picture is good, but the sounds like your cello is very tinny and poor, seems to be the way with these TV's.

I use a normal Samsung 17" TV. Model LT24E390EX 14V 2.5A
When on hook up I use the standard power supply lead, when on battery I use a cigarette lighter adapter.
Good picture and sound as one would expect from Samsung

I have a Cello Traveller 22 inch and sound is abysmal but buying the soundbar was the right thing to do as its a big improvement and if its the Cello soundbar it works from the same remote as the tv. Currently trying to get it to work with a satellite dish which is an interesting journey!
