End Panel Views
The ELAST Port is used to connect the Remote Bass Level Controller and for transferring control signals from one SX amplifier to another SX amplifier. An RJ45 cable is required to connect the ELAST Port (out) of one amp to the ELAST Port link of another. This is only required if you want to control more than one amplifier with the same Bass Level Controller. More details on this further in the manual.
The speaker terminals are custom-machined connectors with full protective shrouds and are designed to accept heavy gauge speaker wire assures maximum power transfer and damping with minimal power loss.
Cold-plated RCA Input connectors and PAST Jacks provide solid input and output connectors for your pre-amp signal.
Custom-machined power block accepts up to a 2 Ga wire for both power and ground connections and up to an 8 Ga for remote turn-on assures maximum power transfer with minimal loss.
On board fusing in number of fuses vary by amp size to protect amplifier against over current conditions and reverse polarity.
Power LED indicates amplifier is powered up and operating.
Check Fuse LED indicates a fault with the end panel fuses. This could be fuses which are not seated properly, faulty fuses or blown fuses.
NOTE...
SX1250.1 does not have on-board fusing or the Check Fuse LED due to larger external fusing requirements.
mounting
When selecting a location to mount your Kicker amplifier be sure it is structurally sound and that there are no items behind the area that could be damaged by the screws. Check for wiring, brake lines, fuel lines, gas tanks, etc.
All amplifiers generate heat under normal operation. Be sure to choose a location that allows adequate ventilation for the amplifier. Also consider that the air temperature inside an automobile's trunk can reach upwards of 140 degrees Fahrenheit. An amplifier mounted in the trunk may require additional cooling such as extra fans moving air around the amplifier's chassis or ventilating the trunk to exchange the hot air in the trunk for cooler air outside. If possible, mounting the amp in the passenger compartment will allow cooler operation.
Remember that the controls on top of the amp will need to be accessible for adjustment later. Keep this in mind as you choose your amplifier's mounting location.
Now that you are ready to mount your amplifier, use the supplied 3mm alien wrench to remove the amplifier EndKaps. This will give you access to the mounting holes in the amplifier and all wiring connections.
See Fig. 1
With the EndCaps removed, you now have access to the four mounting holes in the mounting feet and all wiring connections. Drill 4 holes using a 7/64" drill bit and use the supplied #8 screws to mount the amplifier
WING
Signal is input into the amplifier using the low level RCA input connections. If your source unit does not have RCA output connectors you will need to use a Hi-Lo level signal adapter. See your Kicker dealer for more details on this.
The output IPAST: RCA jacks provide an unaltered signal output to feed another amplifier or component.
The use of twisted pair interconnects is recommended for all installations to minimize noise. When routing these cables through the automobile, try to keep them away from factory wiring harnesses and other power wiring. If you need to cross any of this wiring do so at a 30 degree angle to reduce the possibility for noise problems.
When working with power connections it is always recommended that you disconnect the battery to prevent accidents
The ground should be connected to the amplifier first before making any of the other connections. This wire should be as short as possible (24 inches or less) and connected to a paint/corrosion free solid metal area of the car's chassis. Use the same gauge wire as recommended for the amplifier's power connection to the battery. Adding an additional ground wire between the car battery's negative post and the car chassis of this same gauge for larger is also recommended.
If you ever need to remove the amp from the vehicle after it has been installed, the ground wire should be the last wire disconnected from the amplifier, just the opposite of when you installed it.
A fuse must be installed within 18 inches of the battery to protect the power wire feeding your amplifier. This fuse should be of at least the same value used in the amplifier but no higher than the capacity of the power wire. See the charts below for wire size and fusing recommendations.
| Model | Fuse Size | Wire Size |
| SX650.1 | 60A | 4 GA |
| SX1250.1 | 150A | 2 GA |
| Wire Size | Length | Maximum Fuse |
| 8 Ga | Less than 10 feet in length | 70 Amps |
| 4Ga | 175 Amps | |
| 2 Ga | 250 Amps | |
| 0Ca | 400 Amps | |
| 8 Ga | 10 feet to 20 feet in length | 40 Amps |
| 4 Ga | 90 Amps | |
| 2 Ga | 150 Amps | |
| 0 Ga | 200 Amps |

USING THE SIGNAL OUTPUT JACKS (PAST)
The Output (Pre Amp Signal Transfer) RCA jacks allow you to send the incoming signal from one Kicker SX series amplifier to another amplifier or processor without the need for Y cables. The signal from the PAST jacks is identical to the signal fed to the amplifier via its RCA input jacks and is not affected by any of the amplifier's built-in digital signal processing.
Most head units with high voltage outputs should be capable of driving up to ten amplifiers in a chain.
To Next Amplifier or Processor
USING THE REMOTE BASS LEVEL CONTROL & BLAST
You can use the Remote Bass Level Control to control the output of your amplifier from the front of the car.
Mount the controller by simply screwing the metal bracket to the chosen location and then slide the housing onto the bracket until it snaps into place.
Route the cable from the controller to the BLAST input jack on the amplifier chassis. That's it.
If you wish to control more than one amplifier with your remote, you will simply need to use a R-45 cable not supplied but available at any Radio Shack, computer store or electronics center to connect the BLAST output jack of the first amp to the BLAST input jack of the next amplifier.

As you can see there can be an infinite number of menu levels and each one of these menu levels can have an infinite number of its own items.
Navigating this simple menu structure is very easy using the 5-way keypad.
You use the UP and DOWN keys to scroll through the available menu items, and the ENT key is used to select that menu item. The ESC key backs you up one menu level from where you are, and the HOME key can return you all the way to MAIN MENU by pressing and holding it for 1.5 seconds.
For example let's begin at the DEFAULT SCREEN; our goal is to get to the HISTORY menu. Pressing the ENT key would get us to MAIN MENU. Now use the UP and DOWN keys to scroll to SYSTEM, and then press the ENT key. Now you are in the SYSTEM MENU. Using the UP and DOWN keys again you scroll to SICK BAY and press the ENT key. You are
Continuing our example, we are now in the HISTORY item in the SICK BAY MENU. If we press the ESC key we would go back up to the SICK BAY MENU. If we press one ESC key again we would go to the SYSTEM MENU. One more press of the ESC key and we are in the MAIN MENU.
Let's start at the HISTORY item in the SICK BAY MENU again but instead press and hold the HOME key for 1.5 seconds. Doing this will take us all the way back to the MAIN
FRESS HOLD
holding the HOME key will return you all the way back to the MENU ITEM you started with in the MAIN MENU, no matter how deep in the menu level structure you are. Pretty cool!
This is a very quick way to return to the MAIN MENU after drilling down several menu layers to view or change an item.
When adjusting any amplifier control the UP and DOWN arrow keys have 2 speeds, normal and accelerated.
Pressing and releasing the key repeatedly will scroll through the menu items at normal speed.
Pressing the key and holding it in for longer than 1.5 seconds will activate the accelerated scrolling mode and scroll through the menu items at a much faster rate. Releasing the key will return it to normal speed mode.
Don't try to scroll through every 1/12 octave step without it!

You will need to call KICKER directly at 1405:624-8583 to handle this situation. You will need your amplifier's serial number AND your receipt as the guys and gals answering the phone will need this information from you to help you out
So...before you call, gather this information up and have it ready to save us some time on the phone. Cool? Cool!
Better yet, take the time RIGHT NOW to fill out the first page in this manual and STAPLE your receipt to it. That way if or when you need service like forgetting your lock code? you will have all the information you need right there in front of you.
Press the ENT key to enter your lock your code again.
Enter your code again making sure to place the correct character in the correct position in the display. Blank spaces count as part of the code so be sure you are entering it correctly.
Press and hold the HOME key and try again. If you have found your error then the amp will unlock. If not, the flashing XRD.COM will greet you and you can try again.
If you have tried several times (several is defined as more than 3, less than 10) and you still can not unlock your amplifier, this more than likely means means you have forgotten your lock code.
Memory Presets
There are four memory preset keys each with an indicator above it in the ISS VFD display. The indicator will
illuminate if that memory preset is currently in use,
Each preset stores all the values for each of the following amplifier controls:
This gives you the ability to dial in four completely different amplifier settings and store them in pre-sets for instant recall later.
It's like a preset for your favorite radio stations...only better!
STORING A PRESET
Make all the adjustments you want to have stored in the preset and return to the DEFAULT screen.
To store your settings into a preset simply press and hold the desired memory key until the VFD display flashes 500MHz. Then release the memory key. The indicator which matches the preset you used will illuminate.
RECALLING A PRESET
To recall a memory preset simply press and release the key. The matching indicator will light up and the amplifier change all the corresponding controls to the values assigned to the memory preset.
PRESET PRESETS
Ok, we know that sounds like a certain pizza commercial, but seriously the four memory presets come with settings already in them.
You can use these as a starting point to do your own tweak ing or for quick push-a-button-and-be-done setup.
Any preset you store will replace the ones that come from the factory. You can reset all four preset back to factory defaults anytime simply by doing a reset in the RESET AMP menu.
Here are the settings in each preset from the factory

In more general terms, each preset offers you these options.
Memory-1 sets the amplifier up with a 24 dB per octave low-pass crossover at 80 Hz and an infrasonic filter (often called subsonic filter) to protect the speakers from harmful ultra-low frequencies.
Memory-2 sets the amplifier up with a 24 dB per octave low-pass crossover at 80 Hz, an infrasonic filter (often called subsonic filter) to protect the speakers from harmful ultra-low frequencies and a 6 dB bass boost at 40 Hz.
Memory-3 sets the amplifier up with a 24 dB per octave low-pass crossover at 80 Hz, an infrasonic filter (often called subsonic filter) to protect the speakers from harmful ultra-low frequencies, a 6 dB bass boost at 40 Hz and sets the Kompressor into CONTOUR mode.
Memory-4 sets the amplifier up with a 24 dB per octave low-pass crossover at 30 Hz, an infrasonic filter leften called subsonic filter to protect the speakers from harmful ultra-low frequencies, a 6 dB bass boost at 40 Hz and sets the Kompressor into RED-UNE mode.
As stated before you can always start with one of these presets, tweak it to fit your installation and then save your settings into a new preset.
TROUBLESHOOTING
If your amplifier does not appear to be working, check obvious things first such as blown fuses, poor or incorrect wiring connections, crossovers set improperly, gain controls Impropery set, etc.
There are two LEDs on the end panel of your KICKER SX series amplifier, one green and one red. The green LED indicates the amplifier is turned on. The red LED indicates that there is a fault condition with the end panel fuses and they need checked.
The power indicator on top of the amplifier which illuminates the model badge follows the same function as the green LED.
Green LED off, no output:
P with a volt ohm meter (VOM) check
+ 12 volt power terminal should read +12V to +16V .
^a Remote turn-on terminal (should read +12V to +16V).
Ground terminal to chassis ground (should read 0)
OGreen LED on, no output
Check amp status in SCK DAY
Check GAIN RANGE in SYSTEM menu.
Check GAIN LEVEL in GAIN menu.
Check if MUTE is activated.
Test amo using PINK NOISE in SICK BAY menu.
☑ F amp makes noise using PINK NOISE then
Check RCA cable and connections.
Check for signal on RCA cable with VOM in AC
Substitute known good source unit.
If amp does not make noise using PINT NOSE then
Check speaker connections.
a Test speaker outputs with known good speaker
Other Symptoms:
☑Amo is very hot, no output.
a)Thermal protection is engaged. Check SICK BAY to
verify. Check for proper impedance at speaker
terminals. Also check for adequate airflow around
amplifier.
☑Amp shuts down while vehicle is running.
Over Voltage protection engaged. Check SICK BAY
to verify. Voltage to the amplifier is not within the
2-16 volt operating range. Have automobile
charging/electrical system inspected.
☑ Amp only plays at low volume levels.
Short circuit protection engaged. Check SCK BAY
to verify. Check for speaker wires shorted to each
other or the vehicle chassis. Damaged speakers or
operating amplifier below minimum recommended
Impedance will also cause this.
√Weak bass output
Change the phase of the LEFT channel in the PHASE
menu. If bass improves then one speaker channel is
out of phase (polarity): You can leave PHASE changed
for this channel to fix the problem or better yet:
Check speaker connections to amp and speakers
determine which one is wrong and correct. Be sure
to set the PHASE of the LEFT channel back to original
setting after correcting wiring connections
○Alternator nholsemining sound that varies with engine RPMs
Check for damaged RCA cables
Check routing of RCA cable.
Check source unit for good ground
Check GAIN RANGE in SYSTEM menu, turn down if set too
nign.
Check GAIN in MAIN MENU, turn down if set too high
CAUTION: When jump-starting the vehicle, be sure that connections made with jumper cables are correct. Improper connections (+ to - & - to +) will result in blown amplifier fuses as well as failure to other systems in the vehicle.
If you have more questions about the installation and operation of your new KICKER amplifier, see the Authorized KICKER Dealer in your area. You may also call our Technical Services Line at 4051624-8583 for assistance or visit our website at www.KICKER.com
Kompressor
Here is a brief explanation of each KOMPRESSOR setting.
CONTINUM - This preset applies expansion below the threshold point to provide a fuller sound at lower volume levels. Effect: decreases at higher volume levels. Nice effect for someone wanting a fuller sound at low to moderate listening levels.
This preset applies expansion above the threshold point to provide a nice quick punch or attack to the music. Effect increase with higher volume levels. Like music with a quick and punchy sound? Give this one a try.
PE3-1/PE - Provides a quick clamp to dynamic peaks while still allowing a full sound to come through. Effect increases at higher volume levels. Like to play it loud but want to protect your speakers? Want low level details to come through over road noise? Want a more even volume level to your music? All can be achieved with this preset.
NS - Pretty much says it all. This turns the KOMPRESSOR off. This is the factory default setting.
After selecting your KOMPRESSOR setting you can adjust its effect using the KOMPRESSOR ADJUSTMENT (KMPY YOU) setting located in the SYSTEM menu. There you can change the threshold point for each of these settings to customize the KOMPRESSOR effect to fit your speakers, car or personal tastes.
The possibilities are almost endless! Tweak away!
