How would you like your next DVD player to include a full blown karaoke machine, also called a karaoke player, inside? And what if this machine also carried the largest collection in the world of karaoke songs inside it? Does this sound to you like the stuff dreams are made of?

I have some great news for you! Not only did someone dream this stuff up, but they made it happen in the newest model of the ever-popular SongStation Karaoke Machine!

The SongStation Karaoke Machine looks just like a silver slim-line DVD player. It hooks up to your entertainment system in five minutes. Once you have it plugged into your TV and pick up the handy remote control, you begin to realize it is oh-so-much-more! It’s a DVD player, karaoke player, and CD player all in one, making your entertainment system more entertaining than ever!

Let’s look at the karaoke player itself. The SongStation Karaoke Machine plays every kind of karaoke disk out there. So if you already have a collection of karaoke disks, you will still be able to use them with The SongStation. If you don’t have a collection of disks yet, don’t worry. You get a disk with your SongStation that contains 53,000 karaoke songs. Plus, it’s international. You get songs from countries around the world and in ten different languages.

Along with the songs, this karaoke player comes with a variety of great features. You can adjust the pitch, the key, and the tempo of your songs to better match your voice. You can play a song with the vocals to learn it, and then, with the click of a button, take the vocals off to sing karaoke style. The lyrics show up on your TV screen.

The SongStation Karaoke machine also comes with inputs for 2 microphones, so that you can enjoy duet karaoke. You can adjust the volume and the echo level on each microphone separately to better complement each singer’s voice.

Want to have a Karaoke Competition? With this karaoke player, you can preselect up to 99 songs for it to play, or you can use the already prefigured private compilation of 540 hit songs in nine categories. Your SongStation Karaoke Machine is programmed to score each performance on pitch control, correct tempo, consistency of tone and volume, and intonation.

You can also use this scoring feature to practice and improve your own karaoke singing! Amaze your friends with your performance! They will wonder what your secret is.

So, is this just a great karaoke player with a so-so DVD player and CD player? How do they stack up with the competition? You will be pleased to learn that these parts of The SongStation Karaoke machine are also full-featured and high quality! Your DVD player features Digital Dolby and Digital Theater sound for your listening enjoyment. Choose to listen to your audio in any of eight languages. For subtitles, you can choose from 32 different languages. You can zoom in on your favorite scenes, or watch them from several different angles. In addition, you can activate the Parental Lock function to keep your kids from watching inappropriate movies.

And last, but not least, it all comes with a 12 month warranty.

Wow! I was hard pressed to find a downside to mention in this review. The only possibility of a downside to The Songstation Karaoke machine is that the karaoke player does not have its own karaoke monitor. In other words, it is not a stand-alone player. You need to hook it up to a TV. But at this price and value, it is totally unbeatable!

A great machine at a terrific price

The machine itself is as promised and shipment of the product was fast. However, 1 month after I purchased my SongStation the video component went out. I have spent 2 months trying to get a hold of customer service to arrange an exchange via email, their website and by phone and have been completely avoided. These guys do not stand behind their product and now I am out $600.

So the unit is $600? I have been looking everywhere to see how much this thing is and I guess the price is top secret or something!

Everyone I know have been trying to buy this SongStation Karaoke. However none and I will say it again "NONE" have been able to purchase it. No contact, no information, no response, no nothing. Now they are requiring your to download un-needed software from their site just to be on a waiting list? For what? So you can buy their system? No price listing, no availability listing, no any type of customer service feedback equal one big hoax of a company. For the amount you pay for the system you can very well compile a Karaoke DVD collection just as large or better.

U cant buy this March 29, 2009

Non of the reviews about this karaoke system is real. Its is all FAKE!

It is definitely some sort of fraud. I have been researching this for some time and the same "reviews" keep popping up all over the place. In fact, the 'review' above can be found on multiple sites. This is a giant marketing scheme designed to create hype — and it will all end in the eventual sucking of thousands of people out of $600 each.

Stay away from this. There are plenty of other fine systems out there.
