- Used the Behringer Xenyx 802 mixer as the base for an inexpensive and portable home Karaoke system that will sound almost professional. You can use any portable amplifier, speakers of your choice or even a "boombox" that has RCA input. As long as you take it easy on the volume, you will not damage the speakers.

You can use the same setup with larger speakers and amplifier or with powered speakers and no amplifier. Just make sure you match your setup with your party or venue. Of course, this small setup is not going to work for a large outdoor party, but in a medium room or small apartment it will sound great.
If you want to skip the amplifier, you can use powered speakers:

This is simple and to the point. searched so many mixer set up studio and karaoke set up. no one shows entire end to end connection from output cables to input cables. everyone misses that. thanks for getting this out.can you make video how to stream your karaoke through zoom or facebook or any streaming rather than going out to speaker. so basically live streaming for your karaoke through mixer. you want to have laptop or phone your tube music to be played on streaming which you and other can hears . that is the requirement. no one has explained it in you tube.
This is exactly what I was looking for.exact explanation.what and where to connect
I am impressed with your video, I think that is simple and it's something I love to have as well. Great thanks for the presentation and I hope you can help us as beginners to get what is necessary.
very simple instruction,. thank you so much
Great video tony,i really enjoyed how you wired it .thanks for sharing..
Love it. Simple and strait forward teaching. Cheers.
,
i just purchased my lapai 2020ti amp.thanks again
Thanks for the video.
Reverb and echo for a 2 mic input, that's all. Thanks anyways for sharing your knoww how. Appreciate it.
thank you very much sr. 💪 already saw both
Great explanation
It would have been a great video if you showed it working
thank you tony i was very interested in this thanks for sharing.....
I was expecting you will do sound check or sample videoke music.
There's really nothing to check, it just works, and I sing awful! Maybe I'll do a video with everything hooked up (including the sound effects processor which makes a big difference on how the vocals come out) and sound check it. Not a bad idea.
Very helpful, thx.
Thanks for your recommend !!!
Hi. Have followed your tips but cannot get any sound from the microphone? We are connecting an old hifi amplifier with multiple phone outlets to a Behringer xenyx 802 mixer, and trying to use a Kam cordless microphone connected via xlr to the mixer mic inputs. We can see clipping on the mixer but no audible sound. Anyone any ideas what we are doing wrong please. Music is fine. Many thanks Carol
Great video brother 💯
Question, can I connect dual rca cables one to mixer & to the Amplifier?
You can do it by connecting the cd/tape RCA out to an amplifier with RCA input but it’s not ideal. You should use the 1/4” main out on the mixer
Great video.
Can you also use a XLR directly from your mixer & 35mm input to your labtop?
Cause your amplifier it's already connect it to the mixer.
DJ Javi In Action not sure what you mean. Are you trying to input the mixer to a laptop or sending tha laptop sound to the mixer? Feel free to ask in Spanish. Hablo español perfectamente
Can i use this (behringer 802) and hook it up to harman kardon home amplifier and using chromecast as a player for the karaoke?
you can as long as you input the sound from the TV into the Xenyx and THEN play it through the sound system
I have this mixer but I need an audio interface right? I will use it for guitar , keybaord, vocal and harmonica can you recommend audio interface?
With the UMC404 you can record 4 separate tracks which gives you full control. It includes the software (DAW) when you register it they send you a link to the software and an activation code Unboxing and Overview of the Behringer U-phoria UMC 404HD USB Audio Interface

very informative, thank you! in which cases would you need an amplifier? what if I'm using a smart TV with Roku to play my TH-cam Karaoke - would I still need an "input" RCA plug (like what you used to plug into your tablet)?
Depends on your TV. Some televisions have RCA out, others have 3.5 for headphones and others only digital output. You will need the proper cable to plug into one of the mixer channels. If digital, you will need a converter like I show in one of my other videos.
I also intend to use this for karaoke. I plan to play video content (MPEG-4) in my TV via USB (sound and lyrics), mixing the sound coming in to the mixer with the voice using the mics. Can I use a regular 5.1 DTS amp, the same I use for my theater system, provided I use the aux L/R input? Also, what kind of effects can you get on voice, echo? As per the sound coming from the TV, do you recommend the RCA female on one side and the jack for each channel (L/R) vs RCA/RCA on the right corner? I hope with this mixer I can have full control on music and voice power, separately, so one does not "erases" the other and integrate perfectly.
You can definitely use your receiver in that way. The mixer does not have built in voice effects though. You would have to get an external effects device (I show how to connect one in another video). For full sound control you have to connect the TV sound to a channel jack.
@@TonyHob Thank you, Tony. You explain it very well. I was trying to keep it as simple as possible but not even built-in echo effect?
is it dangerous connecting the laptop through the mixer and turnig on the phantom power?
angelo redolés It could damage your computer, you should connect it using the 1/4" connectors, not the xlr
Is it possible to connect to a jbl bar 5.1 without the amplifier?
yes, just connect the mixer out directly into the soundbar's input connections.
you mean for a mixer we can take any small amplifier and speakers for karaoke home use? please tell me because i went on a shop before 2 days and he suggest me 120 watt amplifier and 10 inch speakers for the stranger um 6 mixer...i wanna use for my personal karaoke entertainment as i like to sing..........thank you....and video is very good
You can definitely use a small amplifier/speaker setup. You can even hook your computer speakers to the headphone out on the mixer using an adapter and would not even need a separate amplifier.
@@TonyHob wow thank you so much. you have solved big problem thanks a lot with heart...best of luck for you
thankyouuuuuuuuuuu
Hi Sir, i want to know if i need another device to add reverb to the mic
This particular mixer does not have sound effects so you would need a separate sound processor for reverb. I show how to connect the sound processor in another video.
Hello sir... isnt it possible to simply use one amplifier which is the xenyx? I mean why not connect the speaker directly to it?
the Xenyx is passive (no built in amplifier for output) and so are the speakers I am using, (non-powered). If you use powered speakers (including powered computer speakers) then you can plug them directly into the Xenyx.
@@TonyHob oh i got it.... and one last question sir. For example i only have the xenyx.. then can i plug all 3 devices directly to it? SmartPhone, microphone and speaker (the powered one).. for karaoke..is it possible?
Soon Sam yes
@@TonyHob thanks a lot sir...
hi does it have the reverb and delay eq?
No
What would you recommend for an fx processor/machine?
It depends how much processing control you want and how much you want to spend. I have another video with the Behringer mini-FX (FEX800) which costs about $70 but only has preset effects. You can still adjust the presets to some extent. For me it works well since I can just want some echo or reverb, it is small, light and portable. Another option with much more control will be the Behringer FX 2000 at about $130. There are also a lot of other ones out there but I like to use the same brand as the mixer if possible.
no sound?
Thank you very much for this video - Can I connect 2 microphones while playing karaoke mp4 from a phone or tablet as well? I guess yes but want to confirm pl. TIA
Prakash Manicka definately, both channels 1&2 have microphone connections so you can use them at the same time and you can adjust their volumes independently
@@TonyHob thanks tony another q - Is there a way to connect the output of 802 to a sound bar? I thought my sound bar had RCA but looks only bluetooth and Optical input..
Prakash Manicka if those are the only inputs then no, but some sound bars have a 3.5mm aux input and you can use a 1/4" to 3.5 cable and connect it that way
@@TonyHob thanks for video.
Can i use mic connected to mixer which i like to connect to home theater av receiver and speakers? Will AV receiver or seakers get damage? , i have Onkyo AV receiver, 7.2 channel and Klipsch speakers speakers. I google and see many post suggest against using av receiver and speaker for karaoke. They mention that setup may damage av reeiver or speakers if mic drops or someone sings loud. They adviced to use Powered Active (PA) Speaker.
I have used it through my AV system without any problems. Just make sure you keep the volume on the mixer at a safe level.
What kind of wire is it for the amp to the mixer?
3:50
You have got your plugs wrong. White left, Red right.
yep, red=right, in my case it does not matter since I do not use the balance for karaoke, but you are correct
Hi Tony, can you connect wireless mics to this set up?
Dave C yes, just connect the wireless adapter to the mic input on the mixer
Awesome! Thanks so much! Do you happen to have links of the products where we can buy it?
@@davec3189 I've had these for a while now but bought everything from Amazon. best to do a search for the latest models.
Tony, if you can help me to where I can get all those same stuff so I can use for simple karaoke with family and friends.
Do I need amplifier
what is the brand name of speakers?
its Infinity
The amp sir how many watts?
It's a little hard to see but it is written on the lower right hand of the amp: 20 Watts rms. Here is a review on a different channel: th-cam.com/video/7BQ2W9M4NUo/w-d-xo.html
@@TonyHob sir, how about the strength of the volume in an open area? Atleast 10x10meters
@@-Taki-Taki depends on your speakers but I have used it with three way outdoor speakers on my deck and it woks well enough. Of course, a bigger amp and speakers would be better for outdoors.
How many watts of speaker do u think sir to a 10x10meters area outdoor?
Too many factors to consider, I have been satisfied with bookshelf speakers but it depends how loud you want it. This set up is best used inside but any set up could work outside. Depends what you are satisfied with. I would try what you have already and see if you need anything louder. Ideally you would need powered speakers on stands but that is beyond the scope of the purpose of this video
Worg setup
What's a "worg"? and could you explain the right setup then? Because this is just one of many ways you can connect the system and is actually the same as shown in the manual from Behringer as preferred.
