This circuit uses two quad op-amps to form an eight LED audio level meter.
Vu meter
The 1K resistors in the circuit are essential so that the LED's turn on at different audio levels. This circuit is easily expandable with more op-amps, and is not limited to use with the LM324.
The 33K resistor on the schematic is to keep the signal input to the circuit at a low level. The circuit in it's current form will accept line level inputs from sources such as the aux out on a Hi-Fi, all though could be easily modified to accept speaker inputs.
The audio + is connected to the main positive rail, while the audio - is used for signal input.

50k pot can be used to change the sensitivity of the circuit.
