IN the market for new wireless mikes for my karaoke setup

[DannyGKaraoke]

The coolest part of the VocoPro 5800 is that I can tell just by looking at the end of the receiver which mike it is that needs to be adjusted. Looks like the same with the AKG.

I have decided to go with the AKG's as the price is better than the 5800. Plus the single battery on the akg lasts longer than the two in the 5800. AKG lasts 30 hours to the 5800's 12 hours of use.

found anther option - although this is the first I have heard of it.

Decided on the AKG for price and battery life length.

Bill,

The vocopro has pull out channels that can be replaced in the field. You can pull a single radio, send it in for repair, and keep right on going with the other 3 (or 7 in the case of the 8800).

While I wouldn't dream of using it for critical events - for karaoke I find it 'acceptable'.

As for multiple reciever units - Audio Technica makes the 5000 series as 1U with 2 microphone receivers... I wouldn't think twice about using one of those.

Niether would I but there is a big difference between a dual channel system costing five grand and an eight channel system costing under $ 600.00.

Actually, the 5000 series is more like $2500 and I picked up the Vocopro for about $250.

But yes, I know what you mean.
