LED vs DD-1

Wired directly to a JVC radio's speaker outputs.

So what does this mean? That the dd-1 is innacurate or?

[bassahaulic 155]

I'm not saying anything, just throwing this out there for people to draw their own conclusions.

It's a $150 LED, perhaps...

This may, or may not have been what my friend said.

[ricksi30 923]

hmmm interesting.

[mccleery3 166]

DAMN!! I need to go get a couple dollar set of LED's to see where things start to clip

[Randal Johnson 544]

hmmm interesting.

My thoughts exactly ...

[edouble101 314]

Lets see whats inside, open her up!

[bassahaulic 155]

Its not mine to open sadly.

[Skullz 8]

Which outputs were used, rca or speaker?

More info is needed to draw any kind of conclusion as to what is going on here other than a strip of LED's hooked to a H/U.

[bassahaulic 155]

Speaker wires directly out the radio.

Everything set to flat or off directly as DD-1 manual says.

[Skullz 8]

Well i guess that method is useless to a H/U with no built in amplifier then.

[bassahaulic 155]

Ok, to please you. Tomorrow, ill go back to the shop. And well do it off an amplifier. Highs or sub?

Marked so I can reply after work, when I am more awake. I think I know what it is, see if anyone is thinking the same as me.

so did you ever try it with a amp? i might grab a couple of led and hook it up to my o-scope just to see

Please do that, we were going to but the Scope was having issues and wouldn't read the signal at all. lol

The radio has a built in amp.

where did you get the LED strip from?? maybe i can get the same LED's to make sure they are the same.....i know most LED's can only handle a couple of volts....have you tried with a 40htz tone? with just the deck

Guys, LEDs will forward bias off an AC signal, you don't need DC for them to work..... I would delete/edit your video.

There are about 10 billion of them operating off of 60Hz in all types of nice Christmas colors as we speak....
