    Sound Receiver too Sensitive. Cover with which Materials?

    There is a sensitivity dial, but it doesn't seem to do much either way. Good idea, Ill just wrap it in cloth and heed Jeffdachef's warning. Thanks man!

    Sound Receiver too Sensitive. Cover with which Materials?

    Ill definitely be sure to watch for any heat. If that body gets warm, ill assume the circuit board is probably hotter

I want to use the microphone switch kits as a last resort, as they tend to be sensitive to a too wide...

    Can I use a relay to wire lights to a speaker?

    Okay, but I do understand the difference between AC and DC; just hear me out. So when the speaker plays, the current will be alternating very fast correct? Now if we analyze one sinusoidal cycle of the AC current, we can see that there are times when there is instantaneously no current. In...

    Can I use a relay to wire lights to a speaker?

    I want to wire some LED strips to the bass speakers in my car so that they will light up to the music. I reason that you cant wire the lights in parallel with the speaker because the lights can blow with too much volume. I also read that it will trash the sound quality. ? Anyway, my plan is to...
