(Assuming they are both the same quality) Which do you prefer using for Karaoke, a corded or wireless mike. Why and why not? Vote In Poll Please.

I feel the only karaoke host that use wired mics are cheap.
However... in the LONG run... the cost of batteries will add up.
I was ordering Duracell Procell AA's by the gross and going through them like beer on a Friday night. I had always heard bad things about rechargeable's, but after reading a glowing test review decided to take a chance and try these (Titanium 2700 mAh). I bought 8 just to try, and WOW. They are FANTASTIC. A pair will power my SM58 wireless mics all night on a charge, and the mics perform perfectly. If you are buying endless AA batteries, save yourself some dough and get some. Mine have already paid for themselves.

On the other hand I use Procells in my Shure Mics (9V) and generally get three to four shows out of them a box of 12 will last me about a month at a cost of $19 a box (business discount).
So far I haven't been able to find a KSM 44 in a wireless version yet!
Yes,
But I was kidding aout using it for Karaoke, it stays in the studio!
Need to look into Shure wireless, if it can take what my wired SM58 can it would be worth it. I know they make a SM58 wireless but I don't know how tough the electronics in it are.
Thank goodness the karaoke hosts used wireless mic's years ago when I was single and used to hit the local bars / pubs. If they hadn't, how the heck would I have been able to jump from booth to booth singing to all the different chicks? :sqrolleyes:
A place to debate everything and anything!
