Karaoke has become popular over the years as it allows you to bond with your friends and family through music. As fun as it is, it's not as accessible since some areas don't have karaoke businesses to visit. If you want a karaoke room in your own home, these are the things you'll need.
1. Karaoke Machine
The most important thing you'll need, of course, is a karaoke machine. This is also a portable version, in case you want to bring it with you during outings or long car rides. This particular machine already comes with two microphones for duets.
You can connect it to your phone, tablet, and PC via Bluetooth, but if you want a bigger screen, it's also compatible with TV, which would be better for a larger crowd. If the Bluetooth connection isn't as stable, you can opt for Micro TF cards, flash USB, and aux cords.
2. TV
You don't really need a huge TV screen for this. As long as you can read the lyrics on the screen wherever you are sitting, then it's good enough. But, you're going to have to buy a smart one, in case you want to access the YouTube app through your TV for karaoke lyrics.
The Samsung 32-inch is big enough that you can read the lyrics from the other side of a bigger room. The display quality is only 720p which makes it clear enough to read lyrics with. However, if you want one with better resolution, you can always opt for 4K HD smart TVs.
3. LED Lights
LED lights have always been a friend to those who want to set a certain mood in rooms. Karaoke, more often than not, requires more festive lighting. With LED lights that can be controlled through a remote, you'll have an easier time making that happen.
LED strips are easy enough to install, especially the ones that come with adhesive backing. You can put it behind a TV, below tables, and more. Depending on the mood of the songs, you can change the color of the light through the remote or the app.

4. Party Lights
Speaking of festive, this might be a little over the top if you just want a simple karaoke room where you can sing some songs and unwind. But if you wish to make it a lively room where and your friends can belt songs and have fun, you might as well add party lights.
This product is a sound-activated RGB party light, which means the laser patterns will dance around as the music plays. There are two of them to be installed on either side of the room, and are also remotely controlled so you can change between seven lighting modes and color schemes.
5. Soundproof Foam Panels
As fun as singing at the top of your lungs is, it could be bothersome for people within the same house. Even with the door closed, sound can still escape the room, which is why it's important to install soundproofing foam to make sure that the sound stays inside.
Some foams have adhesive backing so it would be easier to attach them to the walls. These 50-pack acoustic panels are 12 inches by 12 inches in size. Not only will it keep noise from coming out, it will also improve the sound clarity within the room.
