Connect with a bluetooth karaoke speaker for even more holiday fun
Having a karaoke machine for your Christmas karaoke isn’t essential – but it sure adds to the atmosphere. Whether you're hosting an intimate Christmas Eve get-together with a handful of friends, or you’re catering to the entire family crowd of 50+ after Christmas Day dinner, the perfect at-home speakers are always a great idea. Plus, it makes setting up your Singa account that much easier.
Speaking of which, JBL setup is always a breeze. Consult your model's manual to find the microphone jack (while most PartyBoxes have a special mic input, some might require a specific adapter). Then plug in your wired microphone or connect your wireless mic. Once you’re wired for sound, pair your PartyBox with your account by opening the Singa app – connect via Bluetooth, load up your favorite song and you're ready to go.
Choosing something like the JBL PartyBox Encore Essential can be a great option, the speaker is mall, but powerful and comes with built-in wireless microphones.
