I wanna ad LEDs to my speaker system, connect LED strips to the in outs of my subwoofwer speaker cables, that way, when there is lots of base, the leds will light up. think connecting 10-20 LEDs will delay the sound? or mabey connect the LEDs after the speaker, instead of before, point is, id like more information from those who have tried, or know more than i, where as i have only done a bit of research.

I don't think LED's will run on sound signals to be honest with you. You'd be better off making your own sound-reactive LED strips that can plug into the wall. or, if you have a bit of spare cash, there is a product (I forget its name now), but its like 5 point surround light. it reacts to whats seen on the monitor, and changes colour accordingly, so for instance if you were getting the shit shot out of you on CoD, they would glow and flash red. (blood).

maybe someone else could give you an idea on the product name that I described.

It won't slow you down at all. However it won't work half the time (roughly) either. The leds are diodes(unless you buy special ones that go both ways and are actually two leds in one) diodes only pass current one direction and the other way they just get hot.
