Congratulations!
You’ve just taken your party
game up a notch.
Meet the last karaoke machine you’ll ever need - the Allegro X8 from
Masingo.
Its fully-functional, WiFi-enabled, built-in Android 7.1 touch screen acts
as a control panel, lyrics display, and music library simultaneously. This
professional machine comes with 2 high-quality UHF wireless micropho-
nes, a dazzling, rainbow ring light, and a stunning 40-watt speaker - all
to give the karaoke bar down the road a run for its money.
Choose from Bluetooth, AUX, USB, MicroSD, or HDMI to fill the room with
melody. Sing out some show tunes with Grandma, blast out some big
hits with your pals, or serenade your sweetheart. To top it o, the guitar
input means you can accompany yourself on some righteous ris. No
matter what your skill level, this box of magic is sure to delight vocalists
from age 5 to 125.
Want to take your show on the road? Smoothly guide your machine from
birthday to block-party with the built-in wheels and retractable handle.
Need to send out some announcements during your big bash? No pro-
blem! This portable, multi-functional machine doubles as a punchy PA
system for volume-adjustable, crystal-clear announcements.
When all is said and sung, just clip the mics to the side and turn o the
machine. In no time at all, you'll be ready for an encore.
Sing on!
