Bradprobert Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 I want to add some led's to flash with the bass but i am afraid of hooking them straight up to the amp because i do not want to overload the led's with all that voltage. would a simple fix to be just add a couple of resistors or what? any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Bradprobert Posted February 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 Hook them up to a 12v source, not your amp. ok, the question is still how do you get them to pulse with the bass?

Rmichael91 Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 They make sound sensitive cathode kits.. Or you can get a kit that has different settings - http://www.ledunderbody.com/SMD-LED-Interior-Lighting-Kit.aspx?=sitelink=LeftNav It gets a little pricey, but if its the features your after, then go for it.
