The Kicker KSMT25 pod provides a mid and tweeter with optimized adjustability. The pod can be mounted to almost any surface where a hole can be drilled. Not only does the entire pod assembly pivot, lean, and rotate on the ball and socket mounting stud - the tweeter also has approximately 260 degrees of planetary rotation around the mid to provide desired orientation.

ADJUSTABILITY OF THE KSMT25 POD The KSMT25 tweeter pod assembly pivots and rotates on its mounting stud. This can be accomplished any time before or after installation. 1. To adjust the rotation of the tweeter around the mid, remove the decorative plug at the back of the pod assembly.

TIGHTENING THE BALL AND SOCKET MOUNT If the pod assembly will not remain stationary on the stud, the ball and socket clamp can be tightened to prevent pod movement. 1. Remove the nut and washer from the stud. 2. Using a 2mm allen wrench, tighten the three bolts on the bottom of the pod to increase clamping force on the ball and socket.

Always disconnect the vehicle’s power source before making wire connections. Kicker supplies crossovers with KSMT25 to optimize the sound of the pod’s speakers. The KSMT25 crossover is terminated so that it will only connect to the KSMT25 assembly.

NOTE: The KSMT25 crossover is labeled with the part number 47KSMT25-XO. 1. Connect the crossover terminals and receptacles to their respective mating connector on the KSMT25 pod assembly. The terminals on the 47KSMT25 crossover are all different sizes and types to prevent incorrect connection. Also, the crossover wire colors match the pod assembly wire colors.

2. Slide the clear cover over the terminals to prevent a short circuit. 3. Connect the crossover input to the outputs of the head unit or amplifier using the supplied butt connectors. The positive lead is the wire with gray insulation labeled with a “plus” symbol.
