With what this article provides, you can completely choose for yourself the best microphones to use in your home karaoke system.
The microphone market is quite popular with many different product lines and models, along with quite different prices. That’s why when choosing equipment, you need to learn and prepare yourself with certain knowledge.
The following points of interest will hopefully help you choose the best microphone:
How much does it cost to buy a microphone?
This is the issue that you need to pay attention to first when choosing to buy a karaoke microphone, because currently there are too many types of microphones sold on the market, domestically, internationally, and even used microphones. Actually, there is no perfect answer to this problem, because it depends on the specific case and your audio equipment.
But we can still divide the investment ratio of equipment in a karaoke system according to an estimated %, although not absolute, it is still considered appropriate. Normally, in my opinion, setting is the most important loudspeakerwith an investment of 40%, will then be amplifier karaoke 20%, player about 15% and accessories such as wires will be about 5%. Finally, the remaining 20% investment for the microphone will be reasonable. So if you buy a karaoke system for 20 million, you should accept spending 2 million to buy a microphone.
Pay attention when checking the microphone
In some cases, dishonest sales staff will adjust the existing effects in the store’s sound system to make the microphone sound “sweeter”. Ask them to keep effects like echo, repat, delay… at a moderate level so you can hear the most realistic sound.
In addition, try holding the microphone around or away at a distance equal to the home space where you place the karaoke system to see if the microphone wave is strong enough or not. And it would be better if you could try singing a piece of music you have prepared, to see if the sound is clear or not? Are you timid or feel like you have to strain to sing?
Test multiple microphones
You should test many different microphones when choosing, because even the same type of microphone from the same company still has a certain error rate and leads to different quality of the microphone. . So check this factor to make sure the product you buy is perfect.
No one wants to buy poor quality products, this is natural because they have to spend a lot of money to own products that are right for them. That’s why you should check your microphone in general. Try at low volume levels to make sure the microphone has the right sensitivity.
While singing karaoke, using two microphones is common, so try singing on the two microphones you plan to choose at the same time to see if the sound quality is good or not. Sometimes there will be bad cases like only one microphone can hear clearly, while the other microphone seems to be completely “sunk” and overwhelmed by the sound of the other microphone, so checking is never redundant.
Check the pure sound of the microphone
This is the last step and also the most important step you need to take when choosing to buy a microphone. Ask the salesperson to remove all effects related to the microphone: echo, delay… so you will hear the actual sound of the microphone to clearly know what level the microphone you are about to buy is at. In addition, try bringing the microphone closer to the same sound, to see how sensitive the microphone will be.
Hopefully the above experiences will contribute to bringing new solutions to you when choosing to buy microphones for your home karaoke system.
