Where to begin..well, my girlfriend and i decided to hold a party for my 27th birthday and we thought " Hey lets get a Karaoke machine " so, on to google to search for one, loads of results so lets narrow it down. " CDG player " (CDG or CD+G = Compact Disc + Graphics) still loads of results " Right, we've only got a budget of about £50 " Jackpot. Goodmans GDVD200CDGM from Argos for £49.99p. After getting it home and ripping it from it's packaging we realised our mistake, only one microphone, but not to worry a quick trip back to Argos and we got one for under £10. So, we try to hook it up, it comes supplied with a scart cable but i wanted it to go through my surround sound system and fortunately the player supports 2 channel dolby so i can use a component cable ( thats the one with a red, white and yellow plug on each end ). It comes with a Demo disc but i already had a load of cdg's on my computer as i had a Karaoke machine on my computer so i just had to convert them ( please get in touch if you would like more info on how to do this ) After playing around with a couple of settings, eg, mic level, echo etc, ( all covered in the manual ) we were away, i can tell you, there's nothing like hacking your way through " I Will Survive " after a couple of glasses of vino collapso lol. As for DVD's its perfect, plays all my back-up copies without a problem, picture quality is excellent, audio is sharp. This little gizmo has now taken the place of my regular dvd player, and for ease of use, simple, picture it, your watching a movie and your friends come round, " wanna sing on karaoke " you say, " sure ".... take your DVD out, insert a CDG disc, plug in the mic's ( sockets are on the front ) press play, Warble the rest of the night away..
