Karaoke TV Monitors

I simply have people sing directly off my laptop. Makes for a quick setup.
 
For the bar shows I use 19" TVs that I picked up used. For my party system I also use a 19" but it is a new magnavox.

I run cable with an RF modulator, if there are other TV's at the venue I can connect to them or sometimes I run my televisions back to back so the audience can see the words. I believe it encourages other potential singers once they see how easy it is.

Can't you use Computer Monitors? Or do you have to use TV's?
 
Sure, you can just personal choice and cost for the same size monitor.

The reason we use the televisions is to be able to connect with other televisions at the venue using cable. Most places already have cable ran from television to television so it is easier to connect to their televisions.
 
Turn your PC monitor into a multi input /TV with this device...

It will allow you to still use the monitor with your PC with a passthrough, yet also allow full screen TV and composit input for your live video.... Even PIP.


If you still want to connect to other sets like in the bar, you could also go for this model, and use a converter to convert the composite to coax...

I think everyone heard about my 13" color monitor saga.....in a worth thread.

The TV stand I'm using, is on one of those Guitar Center mixer stands that cost $80....I've rigged up a cross-piece that goes across the back, it holds the TV snugly and I don't think we'll see this stand get knocked over again!
 
Flat screen LCDs less weight, less size. Can be mounted on wall mounts that are connected to speaker stands, pole mounts, flat bases, etc.

Why is anyone still using coax when RCA is cheaper, easy to carry, easier to setup and the TVs in most bars have composite connections? For connecting into a bars cable system using many TVs I use one of the 2.4 gig rabbits and send the singal wireless to their cable distribution panel, install it and forget it, then all you have to do is put each TV you want to use on channel 3 or 4 and you are done.

I'm not saying the bars and such are still using coax. It was simply a suggestion Steve. It outputs Composite, and another model outputs component, so you could be covered by one of these products regardless.
 
so by looking at that deal,,, if I have an un-used monitor laying around, I can come out of my Karaoke player, into that little box, then from that box to my monitor...

sorry for all the dumb questions, but I'm really bad at this stuff...

So I could put that box in the road case with the player and buyt a LONG cord to the stand with the monitor....

Right?
 
Pretty much sums it up... Yes!
You could possibly package it with your monitor too, and instead use a long composite, ore whatever other output is supported by your player to run to this mounted on your display stand.
 
Opps I meant component not composite.

All cable systems still use coax I believe but since all CDG players use component video connection it just makes more sense to eliminate the extra step.

On topic: I generally use the venues' TV/Monitors. I also carry plain Celestron ( department store ) 13 " color TVs with video inputs.
.
I do have a 27" that I've used on occasion, but hate hauling it if I don't have to....

....and now I have to eat my words. I just got hired for a new venue that has NO bar TVs. I HAVE to have at least 1 27" or better that faces the crowd. Damn!
