I have 2cents to put in here. I have never used amps or anything. I have my pc, mackie mixer, 15" flat screen, keyborad, mouse, and I put most of the cables wires and soforth in a duffel bag done it for a full year never had a problem.

I ALSO use Crete powered speakers. I noramlly have access to the outlets needed. I also cary 25 & 50 foot extention cords incase. Even with all this I even set up my own DJ table and all the frills and if I work slow it takes 45 mins if I work at a normal pace 30 mins is I bust butt 20 mins. I have found the sound quality is good from powered speakers and I have the better sounding system in the area.

My sound is different than most karaoke systems since I use a mixer and pc the echo or reverb is not the same. I can add what on my mixer is called delay. It gives it that reverb rich sound but it doesnt make the siger feel they are being overshaddowed by it. I have been told more echo can make a singer sound better but I disagree. I think I sound more like the CD or what you would hear on a CD than A Karaoke bar.

But the speakers I have I love yea they do weigh 60 pounds and go up on stands but I like em of course I have helped friends with amps but dont know dink about em.
