KX Amplifiers
Installation
System Diagrams
The following diagrams show the most common configurations for your Kicker KX series system.
Stereo Operation with Subwoofer
These KX amplifiers are capable of operating into a minimum impedance of 2 ohms per channel in stereo operation and 2 ohm
mono on the subwoofer channel. Modern high performance speakers have a lower DC Resistance than what used to be available.
The Kicker Coaxial and Component Speakers are rated at four ohms (some DC Resistances may be as low as 3 ohms) and work
with any amplifier designed to operate at a four ohm load. If you want to use two Kicker Coaxial or Component Speakers on a single
channel of your amplifier wire the speakers in series. This will improve the sound quality, lower the total harmonic distortion and
lessen the thermal load at the amplifier. This may prevent an amplifier from shutting down, due to over-current protection circuitry.
