We have reached the point in our marriage where we feel we can now commit ourselves to buying a videoke machine. We're looking at either the Diamond Xtreme Magic Sing or the Grand Videoke. Does anybody have any advice they can give me on these and where to get them? I definitely don't want to mess this up.

That is one of the funniest posts I've read in a long time. Salamat for the laugh! We have the Magic Sing...unfortunately when I sing it is far from "magic!" Joan and I ordered it from Amazon.

Mahalo/Salamat!

So you have an open marriage. Open to videoke. Not us, man - no way. This is a videoke-free zone.

We have a couple of real amps, mics, a mixing board and some instruments. We have a mic and amplifier hooked up right now to practice school speeches and do performances. It's homeschool. They are just starting piano. We (the King and his Subjects) enjoy and encourage this use of amplifiers and speakers.

Not all cultural features of the Philippines are worth emulating in my ever humble but always correct opinion. Videoke is one of them. If she brought one home I would leave. Once a videoke groupie, always a videoke groupie. You guys can do your open marriage thing - swingers, with the videoke, anyone jumping up there to sing so bad it hurts. Not us. We are conservative people of faith. Faithful to pitch, to key, and to snappy arrangements with a lot of minor chords, 7ths, and 5ths.

Magic Sing for sure. Check Amazon and ebay for sure, maybe Craigs list but doubtful there.

They got a program where you can take karaoke dl's from youtube or elsewhere and convert to a format it can use. Throw them on a usb drive and make your asawa EXTREMELY happy.

Im confused.... MArraige Advice? (the title)... And Rlogan's comment or post whatsoever..open marriage thing, swingers????? I had to read what B_J wrote... hahahha or am i missing something????? anyhow.... I have been thinking on getting Videoke thing.... (not planning on swinging thing or something) just to entertain myself... We live in the country side and I can always sing my heart out anytime without bothering other people (they live like acres away). Question: How can you make it work?? Im afraid might not work? So long we have TV or anything and hook it up then thats it????
