Hey just wanted to post an update! 8) I decided on the API A-801 (600w), 2x Yamaha BR12's, and a pair of API rechargeable mics that I got a good deal on. The system sounds kinda ridiculous haha. I'm pretty sure we can wake the dead with this setup and it sounds pretty good. I'm planning to upgrade t...

So...after lengthy discussions with my girlfriend's various uncles they all admitted to spending thousands on their systems. Most of them are using 600W mixing amplifiers as well. I'm going to bite the shotgun shell (because the bullet would be too small) and just give her the best system I can atte...

None of her family members use PA-style speakers...all of them are using tower-style or even older, larger, bose speakers. They crank it so loud...heck they blow the cones sometimes and just replace them. It sounds ok to me when they sing. No distortion or anything like that, even when it's that lou...

So after hopping around and looking at the more complete systems...I do like the one you suggested, Acesonic 250W Mixing Amplifier + Speaker Combo w/ UHF Wireless Microphones , but my biggest concern is will it be loud enough. Have enough oomph. My Karaoke space is only 221sqft. Would it be worth it...

While your amp/receiver would drive the PA speakers it certainly is not ideal. As a rule of thumb the amplifier should be able to deliver power equal to twice the speaker's continuous power rating. Have you considered a matched set system like this one by Acesonic ? For a little more that what you ...

The amp/receiver has a 200 watt output and should be sufficient. Definitely go with PA speakers. I'm not a big fan of VocoPro in general and that mixer in particular because it doesn't have balanced XLR inputs. In its price range I would probably opt for something like the Behringer XENYX 1202FX . ...

Trying to deliver a karaoke system for christmas...need help
I currently have an existing Yamaha receiver that I planned to run two PA-style speakers to a second zone so we don't ruin the 5.1 system I currently use for movies etc. I plan on using a spare laptop and a 2TB external hard drive to store and play the songs. The external hard drive has already been...
