INSTALLATION

Mounting: Choose a structurally sound location to mount your KICKER amplifier. Make sure there are no items behind the area where the screws will be driven. Choose a location that allows at least 4" (10cm) of open ventilation for the amplifier. If possible, mount the amplifier in the climate-controlled passenger compartment. Drill four holes using a 7/64" (3mm) bit and use the supplied #8 screws to mount the amplifier.

Wiring: Disconnect the vehicle's battery to avoid an electrical short. Then, connect the ground wire to the amplifier. Make the ground wire short, 24" (60cm) or less, and connect it to a paint-and-corrosion-free, solid, metal area of the vehicle's chassis. Adding an additional ground wire of this same gauge (or larger) between the battery's negative post and the vehicle chassis is recommended.

The KX amplifier's RCA inputs will receive either high or low level signals from your car stereo's source unit. A high-level signal can be run from the source unit's speaker outputs to the stereo RCA input on the end panel of the amplifier using the KICKER KISL as shown. Alternatively, the signal can be delivered to the amplifier using the low-level RCA outputs on the source unit. Keep the audio signal cable away from factory wiring harnesses and other power wiring. If you need to cross this wiring, cross it at a 90 degree angle.

source unit high-level speaker outputs + - core conductor to amplifier er shield OR KICKER KISL (optional) to amplifier er from source unit high- level speaker outputs

Install a fuse within 18" (45cm) of the battery and in-line with the power cable connected to your amplifier. If you ever need to remove the amplifier from the vehicle after it has been installed, the ground wire should be the last wire disconnected from the amplifier--just the opposite as when you installed it.

Automatic Turn-On Selection: The KX series offers three different automatic turn-on modes that can be selected on the end panel; +12V, DC Offset, and Audio. Using either the DC Offset or Audio mode causes the REM terminal to have +12V out for turning on additional amplifiers.

• Remote Turn-On: Set the switch to +12V to use the remote turn-on lead from your source unit. Run 18 gauge wire from the Remote Turn-On Lead on your source unit to the terminal labeled REM between the amplifier's positive and negative power terminals. This is the preferred automatic turn-on method.
• DC Offset Turn-On: If Remote Turn-On is not an option, the next best setting is DC Offset. The DC Offset mode detects a 3V DC offset from the HI-Level speaker outputs when the source unit has been turned on.
• Signal Sense Turn-On: The Audio setting is the final alternative for Automatic turn-on. This is a Signal Sense turn-on method that detects the incoming audio signal from your source unit and automatically turns on the amp. This turn-on method will not work properly if the input gain control is not set appropriately.

Radio Detect: The RCA inputs on KICKER KX amplifiers are capable of receiving either Hi or Low-level signals from your source unit. If you are using Hi-Level inputs, but your source unit cannot detect an audio system present or refuses to play audio out of one or more speakers, you may need to set Radio Detect to ON. This will activate a load resistor at the amplifier's inputs and tell the source unit there are speakers present. Do NOT use Radio Detect if you are using a Low-Level input signal; doing so will greatly reduce the input signal.

Fader Switch (KXA400.4 only): Depress the fader switch if you are running two sets of inputs (front and rear for example) to the amplifier. Leave the fader switch OFF if you want to drive all channels from a single stereo input.

Input Gain Control with Gain Matching: The input gain control is not a volume control. It matches the output of the source unit to the input level of the amplifi er and features Gain Matching to prevent clipping the input. For a quick setup, turn the source unit up to about 3/4 volume (if the source unit goes to 30, turn it to 25). KICKER recommends using the test tones at www.kicker.com/support/ to reach the most accurate and best performing settings. Next, slowly turn (clockwise) the gain on the amplifi er up until you see the Gain LED light up or hear audible distortion, then turn it down a little. If the GAIN knob's backlight comes on, the input is still clipping. For full instructions on Gain Matching, please see the next page.

Crossover Switches with Frequency Multiplier: Use the XOVER switches on the end panel of the amplifier to set the internal crossovers of AMPS 1 & 2 to OFF, HI-PASS, LO-PASS, or BAND-PASS (AMP 2 only). When the switch is set to OFF, a full bandwidth signal will be amplified. Set the switch to HP if you want the amplifier's internal crossover to serve as a high-pass filter. Set the switch to LP if you want the amplifier's internal crossover to serve as a low-pass filter. Set the switch to BP when a specific frequency range is required. Never change the crossover switches with the audio system on!

Set the 1X/10X frequency multiplier switch to the setting that is appropriate for your application. A setting of 10X will set the range of the AMP 1 crossover to 100–5,000Hz, and the crossover of AMP 2 to 400–5,000Hz.

KICK EQ Bass Boost Control: The variable bass boost control on the side of the amplifier is designed to give you increased output, 0–18dB, at 40Hz. The setting for this control is subjective. If you turn it up, you must readjust the input gain control to avoid clipping the amplifier.

GAIN MATCHING

In any audio system, the goal is to reach maximum input and output levels without distortion or clipping. The engineers at KICKER have taken the guesswork, and hassle, out of matching the output voltage of your source unit to the amplifier with the Gain Matching feature. To begin, you'll need to download the KICKER test tones from www.kicker.com/test-tones. The following files are available in MP3 and WAV formats:

1kHz @ 0dBFS, 50Hz @ 0dBFS, 1kHz @ -10dBFS, 50Hz @ -10dBFS, 1kHz @ -5dBFS, 50Hz @ -5dBFS

These test tones are sine waves meant to provide a consistent signal for the KX amplifier to reference. The different recording levels are designed to give you the perfect gain match for your application.

0dBFS: Designed for audiophile applications to give you distortion free audio output with the most dynamic range.

-5dBFS: Designed for normal/daily applications, there will be less dynamic range but higher potential audio output levels. With this set up you can get some occasional clipping from the amplifier.

-10dBFS: Designed only for Subwoofer applications, there will be less dynamic range but higher potential audio output levels. With this set up you can get some clipping from the amplifier.

Afterwards, use the following procedure to accurately Gain Match your amplifier(s):

1. Disconnect the speakers from the KX amplifier.
2. Set all EQ and crossover settings to flat on your source unit.
3. Play the downloadable file from KICKER.com
4. Turn the source unit up to 3/4 volume.
5. Increase the gain of the amplifier until the Gain LED turns on.
6. Decrease the gain of the amplifier until the Gain LED turns off.

All level matching circuitry in the KX amplifiers is at the beginning of the signal chain. If you are going to use features like bass boost, it may be necessary to readjust the gain to a lower setting to compensate for increased output at those frequencies.

Once the amp and source unit are gain matched, you will want to make certain you are not overdriving your speakers. Use the following procedure:

1. Set the source until volume to 0.
2. Reconnect the speakers to the KX amplifier.
3. Slowly increase the volume level of the source unit as you listen for audible distortion.
4. If you can hear clipping, decrease the gain of the amplifier until it is gone.

TROUBLESHOOTING

If your amplifi er does not appear to be working, check the obvious things fi rst such as blown fuses, poor or incorrect wiring connections, incorrect setting of crossover switch and gain controls, etc. There is a Protection (PRT) LED on the side panel of your Kicker KX series amplifi er. Depending on the state of the amplifi er and the vehicle's charging system, the LED will either glow red or be off.

Red (PRT) LED flickering with loud music? The red (PRT) LED indicates low battery voltage. Check all the connections in your vehicle's charging system. It may be necessary to replace or charge your vehicle's battery or replace your vehicle's alternator.

Red (PRT) LED on, no output? ① Amplifi er is very hot = thermal protection is engaged. Test for proper impedance at the speaker terminals with a VOM meter (see the diagrams in this manual for minimum recommended impedance and multiple speaker wiring suggestions). Also check for adequate airflow around the amplifi er. ② Amplifi er shuts down only while vehicle is running = voltage protection circuitry is engaged. Voltage to the amplifier is not within the 10–16 volt operating range. Have the vehicle's charging and electrical system inspected. ③ Amplifi er will only play at low volume levels = short circuit protection is engaged. Check for speaker wires shorted to each other or to the vehicle chassis. Check for damaged speakers or speaker(s) operating below the minimum recommended impedance.

No or low output? ① Check the balance control on source unit ② Check the RCA (or speaker input) and speaker output connections. ③ If using a Low-Level signal, make sure Radio Detect is OFF.

Alternator noise-whining sound with engine's RPM? ① Check for damaged RCA (or speaker input) cable ② Check the routing of RCA (or speaker input) cable ③ Check the source unit for proper grounding ④ Check the gain settings and turn them down if they are set too high.

Ground Noise? KICKER amplifiers are engineered to be fully compatible with all manufacturers' head units. Some head units may require additional grounding to prevent noise from entering the audio signal. If you are experiencing this problem with your head unit, in most cases running a ground wire from the RCA outputs on the head unit to the chassis will remedy this issue.

CAUTION: When jump starting the vehicle, be sure that connections made with jumper cables are correct. Improper connections can result in blown amplifier fuses as well as the failure of other critical systems in the vehicle.
