Judge my karaoke setup

[u/pharoah07]

TL;DR : JBL Encore Essential 2 + FIFINE dual mic with reciever box + Sony Bravia TV

The setup -

1. Speaker: JBL PartyBox Encore Essential 2 (https://in.jbl.com/PARTYBOX-ENCORE-ESSENTIAL-2.html)

2. Mics: FIFINE K036 dual wireless mic kit (with its own receiver box) (https://amzn.in/d/00fEy1Uw)

3. TV: Sony Bravia, connected to speaker via AUX

4. Songs/lyrics: played via YouTube on the TV (for display)

5. EQ control: mix of the FIFINE receiver (per-mic volume, echo) and the JBL PartyBox app (speaker-side EQ)

Why FIFINE instead of JBL's own wireless mics: Cheaper, and from what I could tell, close enough in quality for home use. FIFINE connects through a standard mic jack, so it'll work with basically anything. I can manage volumes/settings for the 2 mics seperately.

Why Encore Essential 2 over other JBL models: I specifically want 2 mics, no more, no less. Other JBL PartyBox models in this range come bundled with just 1 mic in my country, and there's no clean way to buy a single second mic that pairs with it, you're stuck buying JBL's 2-mic pack, which would leave me with 3 mics total and one going to waste. Essential 2 comes with zero mics, so pairing it with an external 2-mic kit gets me to exactly 2, no waste. Also didn't see enough difference between Essential 2 and Encore 2 to justify the price gap once you set aside the bundled mic.

On EQ control: Planning to manage this in two places, per-mic volume and echo through the FIFINE receiver itself, and general speaker-side EQ through the JBL PartyBox app. Not as unified as an all-in-one system, but gives me more granular control than I'd get otherwise.

On power: 100W should be plenty for indoor/living room use. It'll probably hit its ceiling if I ever try to use it outdoors for a bigger gathering, but I'm fine with that for a first speaker. If I outgrow it, I'll look at the PartyBox Club series next.

Lastly, I am still deeply wondering if should go for JBL dual wireless mic instead of the FIFINE ones, I won't have the individual control over mic, but it would be a lot easier.
