You can display the lyrics with any color television, big screen tv, computer monitor, or anything else that will accept a video or VHF signal. The video out of your player (usually a single RCA connection) can be connected directly to a source (tv, monitor, etc..) that has an RCA video input. For televisions that do not have this type of connection, you can add an RF modulator that will convert the video signal to VHF and allow you to use a standard coaxial cable.

I use a simple 13" TV with an RCA input so I don't need the rf Modulator.

You don't always need an RF modulator but you always need to have one with you for the times when you need to tap into a bar's cable system to display on their tv screens.

And if you hook up to multiple bar TVs, you also need to have an RF amplifier to boost the signal strength.
