Purchase Date:

Speaker Model Number:

The KICKER KM coaxial speakers are specifcally designed for mounting in free-air applications. The speakers do not require a sealed enclosure for optimum performance. It is important to isolate the sound coming off the front of the driver from the sound radiating from the back of the driver. This isolation is usually accomplished by using the driver in a factory speaker location, or in a location with a semi-isolated rear chamber.

LOCATION

The sound produced by the KM coaxial is directional. Find the best location for stereophonic sound. If necessary, add more KM coaxial speakers to the system to help distribute and balance the sound-stage. After determining the best mounting locations, carefully check the areas where the mounting hardware will be placed.

Pro Tip: You are one KXM Amplifier and a few cables away from a complete, high-quality system with rock-solid bottom end as only available from KICKER! Please ask your dealer about KICKER KXM amplifiers upgrades.

INSTALLATION

Mounting: Make sure the stainless steel mounting screws and U-type speed clips will not puncture the fuel cell, wiring, or interfere with any mechanical parts on the underside of the mounting surface. Pro-drill the mounting screw holes using a 7/61" (2.5mm) bit, and attach the KM coaxial speakers to the boat by fastening the supplied stainless steel coarse threaded screws to the boat's structure. If applicable, use the enclosed stainless steel U-type speed clips. If the supplied hardware is not applicable to your installation, some other means of securely attaching the speakers to the boat must be used.

Wiring: Carefully place the speaker wire in a location that is clear of standing water and moving components of the boat. For reference, the Blue wire is Positive and the Grey wire is Negative. The locking terminal cover with water resistant gasket is removable for wiring installation; it helps prevent terminal corrosion and electrical shorting. Connect the gold-plated male quick disconnect on the end of the 18 inch (46cm) speaker wire leads coming out of the sealed speaker basket to the wires from your amplifier or source unit. Place the connected wires into the locking terminal, making sure the divider separates the blue and silver wire quick disconnects, and snap the locking terminal cover into place. Connect the other end of the wire to your amplifier or in accordance with its owner's manual. Mount the locking terminal cover in a location free and clear of standing water by utilizing the supplied zip ties through the integrated loops in the locking terminal cover.

LED Wiring (KM654LCW/KM84LCW only): When hard-wring the RGB lighting, the black lead is +12V and the red, green, and blue leads are ground. There are seven colors available, depending on your wiring configuration. KICKER recommends using the KMLC Lighting controller (sold separately) for more colors, patterns, and special effects.

Color Combinations: Splice and combine the ground wires to yield a different color.

INTERNATIONAL WARRANTY

WARNING: KICKER products are capable of producing sound levels that can permanently damage your hearing! Turning up a system to a level that has audible distortion is more damaging to your ears than listening to an undistorted system at the same volume level. The threshold of pain is always an indicator that the sound level is too loud and may permanently damage your hearing. Please use common sense when controlling volume.
