Reddit reviews Powerwerks PA System (PW50)

Hey! I wanted to spend as little as possible and have been seriously enjoying my choice to pair a mini PA with a home theatre subwoofer. This amp has a subwoofer out plug, so I can adjust my mids and highs on the amp and my lows on the sub itself. Better yet, if you want more of a 'sound environment' you can pick up a pair of these speakers and mount them on either side of your kit and control them together.

this or this would probably be what you want at the cheapest possible price range.

You can subscribe to a service called Karafun for a one time/event use and it has most of the songs you want for karaoke, and anything else you can probably find on youtube. You'll need a laptop, if you want a monitor a small tv, a speaker, and a microphone or two. The Karaoke machines kind of suck, IMO.

If you have DJ you can see if they can rent you microphones. If you don't, you can get a decent Berhinger Voice mic for like $30 on amazon

Can't vouch for this mic, but it's cheap: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01ISNU3X4/ref=sspa_dk_detail_3?psc=1&pd_rd_i=B01ISNU3X4&pd_rd_w=WJtAp&pf_rd_p=8a8f3917-7900-4ce8-ad90-adf0d53c0985&pd_rd_wg=EVrCf&pf_rd_r=CEMHB0P1ZVKVVSCMGGDC&pd_rd_r=b2127a2e-9da9-11e9-b37e-594169a5e18b

You don't necessarily need mic stands if you have long microphone cables.

Decent PA System: https://www.amazon.com/Powerwerks-PW50-PA-System/dp/B004VQDAQK/ref=sr_1_11?crid=OH9SH5HX7LY4&keywords=portable+pa+system&qid=1562168848&s=musical-instruments&sprefix=portable+pa%2Cmi%2C149&sr=1-11

For similar price, more power, easier portability, and... basically everything better... you could go with one of these:

Would this do the job? Aren't monitors for the singer to hear himself?

Oh and would I need a mixer in addition to that?
