    Rob,

    Those are external speaker wires. Liberty unhooks the original internal speaker wires and solders in external wires to connect to the coach speakers.

    When I changed out mine to new flat screens, I took the new TV’s apart and did the same thing.

    I suspect the wires you refer to are going to external speakers such as might be hidden in the living room ceiling.

    If your Liberty is typical the TV is behind a black plexiglass panel so the entire upper cabinet structure appears to be one black cabinet. If that is the case the sound from the TV speaker would be muted so Liberty taps into the TV speakers and adds the external speakers.

    They look like speaker wires . The other IR sensor beside the tv that maybe works the VHS, Cd multi player, and maybe somthing else? The remote is not working yet not sure if coz the AA or AAA batteries were corroded on the remotes or power to that IR sensor. Regardless do you think its time to change the 18+ years old AV Players even never been used? I dont know what the remote really did other than tv cd Vhs dvd and maybe radio .

    Since you do not have any Crestron controls and the vintage of your AV equipment is almost 20 years old I don’t see any issues in replacing whatever you want. Your coach likely has a device that routes your TV input signal to the TV based on what you want to see, whether it is cable, satellite, roof antenna DVD, etc. You are going to have to make that part of the equation, but other than that I don’t see an issue other than possibly having to do some work to secure the devices and make them look like they are built in.

    I think sony has a tv with remote that will do all of the components but the doors on the right side will need smoked plexy so they can see the IF. Does this sound reasonable? Are the new models pimped out like james bond stuff?

    I’m lucky to be able to operate my garage door opener so tought questions about what remotes will do is for others to answer.

    Having said that my home sound system guy put some sort of electric eye on our system located just below the TV. With that eye which sends some form of signal to the sound system, DVD player (or is it blue ray?), and satellite receiver I can operate everything from one remote. So I know it can be done and I know you do not need to have doors open or clear plexiglass to get the signals from the remote.
