The New Year is coming soon, which means it’s time to buy gifts, prepare Olivier and put up a Christmas tree. Apparently, instead of mass festivities and big parties in clubs and restaurants, this year’s holiday will be handled exclusively at home. What do you need to organize the most fun and unforgettable party at home, what will help create a party atmosphere, and what can be a good gift?

Audio system

A holiday is not a holiday without music. As you know, the night from December 31 to January 1 is the only night in the year when you can listen to 320kbps Songs loudly without any consequences. An excellent excuse to test the strength of the dynamics of your new speakers! But, seriously speaking, 30 watts per channel is more than enough for an average apartment. It will be just comfortable, but not deafeningly loud. However, fans of discos definitely need a headroom so that the speakers do not wheeze at high volume due to a weak amplifier.

Portable speaker

Someone loves music louder, and someone more important is the opportunity to take it with them. For the latter, there are Bluetooth speakers. Today you can find a portable audio system for every taste and color – from small three-watt models to the impressive size of eighty- watt monsters that can compete in volume with stationary audio. An excellent solution if the holiday is held in a multi-room apartment, and you need to sound every room. If in the New Year you want more bright, then a backlit speaker is ideal.

Portable audio system

For large rooms in a country house or open terraces, more power is needed than a pocket speaker. An all-in-one portable audio system will help you sound a large space. These things are specially created for holidays and parties: huge power (up to 1000 W or more), the ability to play music from different sources, connecting several smartphones, various DJ effects, karaoke and even built-in color music. True, such devices can be called portable very conditionally due to their weight under 15 kg, but they have handles for carrying, like professional concert speakers

Microphone for karaoke

In the new year, there will always be fans of drinking songs, and, perhaps, performers of higher genres. In order not to wake up without a voice on January 1, a karaoke microphone comes in handy. Such devices can connect via Bluetooth to any wireless speaker or TV, on which it is enough to turn on karaoke videos from YouTube. Some devices even have a built-in speaker and the ability to add echo – they are a completely self-contained portable speaker with a microphone and video in 4K. 

Vinyl player

Of course, inexpensive turntables are not suitable for DJing – you need higher class turntables for that. But with their help it is easy to create a special atmosphere of home comfort. And the ability to play music not only from vinyl records, but also from portable devices via Bluetooth, dramatically turns the turntable into the center of any party. In addition, during the New Year holidays, there will be time to listen to the entire grandmother’s collection of Soviet records and even digitize especially rare copies in mp3 using the player itself.

DJ console

If we do everything in a serious way, then we need not only powerful acoustics, but also an equally powerful music control panel. DJ consoles are mixers that allow you to mix two different tracks into one (for example, taking the rhythm from one and the melody from the other), or to make smooth transitions between different compositions, enriching them with effects. No player needed – the music source can be a PC or laptop. Inexpensive DJ consoles can be easily mastered by everyone, while they will become the ultimate entertainment for parties and create an atmosphere of a real dance floor. There are also sets of remote control, headphones and monitors to immerse yourself in the topic as quickly as possible and not only throw the best party in the world, but also write a couple of tracks for the holidays.

Projector

The projector is ideal for creating a party atmosphere. A picture can be projected onto any surface, and organizing a spectacular video sequence is simpler – just turn on YouTube. In the end, you can play TV on it before midnight to hear the chimes. Today, a high-quality HD projector can be found for a reasonable price, and even 4K devices are not luxury goods, but ultra-high-quality fireworks on a giant screen will pay off any expense.
