Karaoke system?

[rst]

Hi! My wife would like a karaoke system for when we entertain. Didn't know the first thing about them, but after a little research today I guess I can say I understand the basics. Anyone have any recommendations? I see you can get some systems pre-loaded with lots of Chinese songs. Are these worth the uplifted price, versus building your own library? Any systems just perfect for a night of Chinese/American karaoke? Any advice would be helpful. Thanks!

Check in shops in a China town if you live near one, we bought a Karoke DVD player a couple years ago in the Toronto China town, it came with a disk that has several thousand tunes. I have seen some as simple as a microphone that connects to TV, and the Mic contains a small computer with tunes built in.

Thanks, Dan. We live about 10 hours from the nearest China town. So will probably buy something online. At least that's what I'm thinking now.

This looks great ... thanks for the link.

 

For about $100 more looks like I can get the newest model with HDMI output, wireless mics and other features like voice recording. Seems worth it to me. Would others agree?

Yes, the one I bought for my wife did not have mics, ended up dropping about $60 at radio shack for a couple good uni-directional mics.
