Simply plug the HDMI cable to the HDMI ARC port on your Smart TV and plug the other end of the HDMI cable to the HDMI OUT (ARC) port on the SWM16-MAX mixer.

In the case HDMI ARC is not available, you can also connect the SWM16-MAX through either the Optical or AUX (3.5mm) input.

Review: Comes with 2 optical audio wires, so truly easy plug and play, from TV to mixer to receiver for karaoke singing. Sounds great, quality feels fine considering it's just over $100. Only complaint: it allows a plug-in third mic, a wired mic, called mic C. But mic C does NOT have its own volume control. instead, it is w/mic A, and w/mic B+C. My old wired mic, now mic C, is weaker than the wireless mic B, and really could use it's own volume control, turned higher. If you have 3 guys singing, this is a problem drawback. Granted, it was shown that way in the product photos, but I failed to notice it. Overall, it's great for the price . . . . . if you have only 2 singers !!
Review: This little thing is great. I have an older HTPC that I have been using for years, used to use it for a lot of things but now just karaoke. Unfortunately, the power supply died and I don’t want to keep upgrading that for karaoke, so enter this little gadget. I was super excited that it has HDMI in and out making it super easy to connect. I tried to hook it up to my AppleTV box, but it wouldn’t work at all with AppleTV 😔. So, I figured i would try with my XBox instead. Works really well, only the HDMI audio would click out every 20 seconds or so - really annoying. I instead ran the optical cable (included in the box) to my receiver, using HDMI video out + optical audio and and it works great! I did need to buy an HDMI splitter to go with this (splitter, not a switch, as I don’t want to have to push another button every time I use it). You could leave this unit turned on at all times, but I don’t like the bright red power light while using other sources and I don’t believe this unit supports HDR video (not sure about 4K either) so I set it up so this only turns on when I want it for karaoke. Hope this helps people with ideas on how to set this up at your house!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I would like to upgrade the microphones. can i use any uhf microphone with this receiver?**
A: Yes. As long as you have a receiver for the microphone.

**Q: What is the customer service phone number?**
A: I forgot, but it's useless anyway.  If you need help, use the email help route.  I know, I prefer to just call someone up and talk though my pain as well, but with this company you need to use email and what no longer than 24 hours for their response.  On the upside, they are very good at responding and will absolutely get you up and going.  I tested the heck out of them and they exceeded my expectations.  Tip, if you request help earlier in the customer service hours, they usually get back to you same day and back and further correspondence is good.  The set up really is easy.

**Q: Is this built-in songs list?**
A: Hello,
Unfortunately, no there is no built in songs.
You will have to use a streaming device or platform such as playing Songs on YouTube through your Smart TV or other device.

**Q: can I just connect it with my 3.5mm aux cord to my soudbar that is hooked to my tv and have it synchronized for karaoke**
A: Dear customer,

Thank you for your interest in the sound Town SWM16 wireless karaoke microphone system. As the receiver is also a mixer, for optimal sound performance, we recommend connecting your TV to the mixer/receiver and connect the mixer/receiver to your sound bar. 

Please let us know if you have any additional questions.

Thank you,

### ⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by M***N on 2 January 2025*

Easy to install between your soundbar and TV. I used the optical cables. The only issue I have is the balance between the mic and the sound input could be better as I cant quite get enough mic output no matter how much I try. Theres also some effects which is great but they effect both mics. It would be better if it could be set to each mic as Id prefer the reverb to be on the backup singer microphone only, or the tone adjustment to be different between mics as one mic might be a male and one might be a female. But for the price this is note bad.
