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 harnesses, brake lines, fuel lines, gas tanks, etc.
When working with power connections it is always recommended that you disconnect the battery to prevent accidents. Note: To get the best performance from your new Kicker Amplifier, we recommend using genuine Kicker Accessories and Wiring. The ground should be connected to the amplifier first before making any of the other connections.
By using a Mono plug (available at Radio Shack) you can run two KX.1 amplifiers into one woofer. Minimum impedance 4 ohm for KX400.1, KX600.1 and 2 ohm for the KX1200.1. When strapped the Secondary amplifier controls are bypassed. See Tech. Brief for more info. on this configuration.

USING THE SIGNAL OUTPUT JACKS (PAST) The Output (Pre Amp Signal Transfer) RCA jacks allow you to send the incoming signal from one Kicker KX 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 or the High Level inputs and is not affected by the amplifier’s built in crossover.
Navigation On your Kicker amplifier there are three rotary controls on top and one switch on the end panel. These controls ensure the reliability and performance of the amplifier, so they need to be set correctly. SUBSONIC FILTER SWITCH NEVER CHANGE THE SUBSONIC FILTER SWITCH SETTING...
Also check for adequate airflow around amplifier. NOTE: All specifications and performance figures are subject to change. Please visit the support section at www.kicker.com for the most current information. 2.) Amp shuts down only while vehicle is running.
