Audio upgrades for 2013 Sport 16'

Our new (to us) 2013 Sport 16 has a Sony CD/AM/FM that I'd like to replace, primarily to have Bluetooth. Any recommendations? How hard is the replacement?

Also, would like to add some speakers to the "bedroom". Suggestions? Something that mounts on the walls? What about wiring? Should I just take it to the dealer?

Thanks

i replaced both the speakers and the LCD TV

The receiver in my 22FB only outputs composite video and then goes to a doubler, the resulting video is CRAP

i replaced the tV with a slightly larger Samsung LCD with built in DVD player.

here is my link for the speaker upgrade

the DB speakers S3-60v2 were only $100 and sound fine

they are 6.5" vs. the stock 5.5" i used the old white speakers so that i could use the existing hole.

If you want even better sound, get some small good quality bookshelf speakers
NOTE: home speakers are 8 ohm, RV/CAR speakers are 4 ohm

Thanks. Looks like your model has different speakers than the Sport 16 which are flush mounted to the wall above the dining area.

Now thinking of going with some Bose Soundlink Resolve+ instead of replacing the unit. Can move them around or take them outside and I'm guessing the sound will be better too. Not cheap but probably worth.
