Added a couple Bose speakers for right and left and a Bose center channel speaker and voilą - a great sounding system using equipment I already had.

One more update: I installed the Yamaha Home Theater receiver which I was holding on to (no resale value so that means you can get similar non-HDMI units for very cheap) and installed it in the opening next to the factory Jensen unit.
One thing that happened is that all the power consumption tripped a breaker when we were boondocking. It seems the power demand was too great on that circuit when powered by the Onan 5500 generator. When the trailer is plugged into 50-Amp service there's no issue so when we're boondocking we no longer use the Home Theater receiver.
