external speaker

What happened with the external speaker? Still low volume?

I tried a battery-powered external speaker with an amplifier inside on my (car) Garmin nuvi 760 and it worked fine. It's a good thing there is an audio out jack on the 720.

How about updating the software? This can be done by connecting the 720 to a computer and running Dock software.

I have the TND 730 the volume is so low that I can not hear it,I to have had 2 replacement and it is all the same,and I and also having routing issues it sends me 50 or so miles out of route

low volume

I also have the 730 and volume is very very low that I can not hear it in the truck

connected to exetrnal speaker?

Is this problem exists if you connect GPS to external speaker (like line in connector in car stereo)? If it works fine through external speaker it means that speaker or amplifier in GPS is damaged. If so only way is to exchange it for new unit, until they get it right.
