Hi everyone,

I just bought a Radiola 584 Boombox, aka Philips 22AR584.

http://www.angelicaaudio.cz/wp-content/uploads//2016/12/Philips-584.jpg

It equiped with a kind of VU Meter but it is not sound responsive because that's only for the Tunning Level and the Battery Checker.

This boombox looks easy to mod and i have a dedicated connector for this meter.

What can i do to convert this meter to a vu meter ? Plug it on a speaker output ?

Thanks in advance !

Dan

I would measure the impedance of the meter , if its not too big a load you could wire it right to the speakers, you might have to add a resistor because if there's too much wattage the meters will peak out too soon.
