any speaker suggestions for karaoke use? also where to buy it. $:-\$

IMO, any speaker can be used for karaoke purposes. Are your replacing the speakers of your karaoke gear or do you just want to use external speakers?

i've heard that ht speakers are not suitable for karaoke purposes because it will damage especially the tweeters since they are not designed for loud vocals. how about those BMB speakers in karaoke bars? they are boomy and have clear vocals. one audio store suggests to buy na lang sa raon. Any comments on this?

Dont use HT speaker, you will destroy it. You can try JBL S38 which is designed for karaoke. You can order from Arch Audio.

... sorry just new here.

Maybe not those cubed speaker satellites for HT which totally escaped me. What I had in mind are those speaker drivers in Raon from Dai-1chi, Micro, Fostex and other brands that are usually in the 50watt ++range. Haven't heard about the BMB, but if you've heard them before and are satisfied, why not? Personally, I'd get a Dai-1chi from Raon. But if there are better brands out there (more expensive) like the JBL suggested by levi, try them out.

You could inquire with Architectural Audio. At least with the JBL maganda ang sound. Enjoy mag karaoke.

You said any speakers wala ka naman sinabi na cubed. Be careful in advising baka may mapahamak ka. just my 1 cent advise.

BMB speakers are designed for karaoke purposes, also good for small outdoor activities

I already said it totally escaped me as a correction to my earlier post, and the speakers i had in mind when I said it.

According to Architectural Audio, they dont have any stock but they can order it for you. You can audition it at Megamall 5th level (i dont know the name of the shop but it sells JBL speakers). Its better to give epoy of AA a call, he can give you the exact model and explain it better. I was just looking for a karaoke speaker for a friend recently.

Philander · « **Reply #11 on:** Jul 29, 2004 at 11:57 AM »

Name of the audio shop in Megamall that carries JBL, Harman, Infinity, Denon, AE, etc is Accoustical Space

Philander · « **Reply #12 on:** Jul 29, 2004 at 12:13 PM »

Soundroom 5th Level, The Podium carries the same brand

I don't get it... why will karaoke destroy HT speakers? assuming it is played at the correct levels

levi · « **Reply #15 on:** Jul 30, 2004 at 07:52 PM »

Yes if played at correct level but always remember the risk. Feedback, mic being dropped or mishandled, blowing the mic etc. Karaoke speakers are designed to handle this.

Can we use karaoke speakers for ht purposes?

Kasi in my place of work (though not my department) e merong mga sirang mini-karaoke at may dalawang malaking karaoke, Sharp lahat ang brand nila. Usually ang sira ay yung mga tape deck and/or amps, they were use mainly for classroom instructions kaya nakatambak na lang kasi nga sira na at pinagkakahuyan ng lang ng ilang parts.

Nakakapanghinyang naman kesa ibenta as scrap, pwede kayang magawa na surround speakers yung mga mini (2-way naman sya) at yung malaki as sub (tri-amp 2.1 config nya, 10" (sub)woofer) palitan lang ng amp?

vircor · « **Reply #17 on:** Aug 07, 2004 at 01:28 PM »

One thing I like about karaoke although sabi nga ng marami e laos na is its versatility, it never fails to entertain kahit ano isaksak mo ok lang. Pwede ka kumanta, i-plug ang gitara, pati keyboard ok lang. So kahit sabihin pa na hindi na ito uso para sa iba, I think my Sharp HK-W18R will stay with us for a little longer.

JBL S#* series 2 is surprisingly the best for karaoke, try megamall, acoustic space.... (",)

bruce wayne · « **Reply #19 on:** Aug 07, 2004 at 09:54 PM »

try megamall the model is JBL s38 series 2, at 23K, perfect fit for videoke and it's really greater when it is allready breaked in

YrNeH · « **Reply #20 on:** Aug 07, 2004 at 11:36 PM »

i use jbl s38 series2 as fronts for my ht and also used for my karaoke. kahit itutok ko pa yung shure sm58 mic ko, walang feedback

Anybody might be interested in the Powermic Anthony is making. It has 2 4 inch kevlar speakers with an amp where you can attach an external source like a CD player and a microphone with independent volume control, reverb, etc. Very portable. We have tried it in an auditorium and amazingly, it can fill the whole space with sound. Mura lang!

Uses:

Karaoke
PA (public address)
Speakers for CD player or walkman

We have already sold around 50 pcs which is used in public schools, barangay halls etc.

Pictures to follow.

If anybody is interested, you can contact him at 09183354694 or 5417719.

Cheers!

thank u sir nirv

We're using Konzert brand karaoke speaker.

Usually ito ang gamit sa mga coin operated videoke. Raon-bought.

axel · « **Reply #25 on:** Aug 19, 2004 at 12:00 AM »

barrid,

magkano kuha nyo sir and what store?

2RM · « **Reply #26 on:** Dec 09, 2008 at 10:29 AM »

Ask lang po sa mga gurus, ano po b available na stereo speaker na pwedeng pang videoke at maganda rin for listening music. I'm planning to get Bose 301 but i'm not sure kung ok pang videoke since 2way lang cya, sabi po kc friend ko should be 3way kung gagamitin pang videoke. Meron po b sa JBL or other respected brands? Hanap ko po kc ung bookshelves type lang 8" or 10" woofer. Thanks.

2RM · « **Reply #27 on:** Dec 10, 2008 at 10:08 AM »

is this model really designed for karaoke? i can't find any info in google with jbl s38 + karaoke?

praktikal · « **Reply #29 on:** Dec 16, 2008 at 08:31 PM »

ang alam ko ang Watt Hi-Fi at Sound Dimension (Pro Linear brand 250watts @ almost 7k) may mga Karaoke speakers with matching amp.

am using my HT setup for both karaoke also and ok naman. even my old B&W gamit ko rin sa karaoke at 10yrs na ayos pa rin. am using Audio Technica Mic. nasa mic nakasalalay ang buhay ng speakers mo kaya wag na wag kang gumamit ng generic mic kase ang lakas sa feedback nyan. hth
