I won a grant to utilize karaoke in my first grade classroom in September. I researched projectors and came across the reviews for the MovieMate 60. Though it is designed for home use, it suits my classroom needs perfectly. I finally got mine over a week ago and I am thrilled with it. The product description fails to mention is that it is capable of reading CD+G discs, the most common used for commercial karaoke cds. It also plays music from my iPod, but it doesn't read the tracks in mp4 format, so I can't select songs from the screen. It does read MP3 tracks, however. It is easy to play DVDs and CDs from the built-in player or connect my computer to it. I can plug my laptop into the red/white audio jacks and get great sound, too. Now my kids can sing karaoke and use a microphone for amplified sound. It's great fun.
I gave the machine only four 1/2 stars for because some of my DVDs played fairly quietly even when the machine was turned up full blast. I think there may be a dolby setting I have to adjust, but I have yet to figure that out. Also, it is very slick and shiny and instantly picks up fingerprints.
Overall, this is a great machine at a great price and I am thrilled to have it in my classroom. My co-workers are jealous!Get more detail about Epson MovieMate 60 V11H319220 Home Theater Projector.
