Four Channel Models: SX700.4 / SX900.4 Attention: If for any reason you require service on this amplifier during the warranty period, you will need to provide this information and a copy of the receipt to Kicker to validate your warranty. ALWAYS KEEP YOUR RECEIPT! 2 Low Impedance Operation Stable into 2 ohm stereo or 4 ohm mono loads. You have just purchased the latest in amplifier technology to carry the famous KICKER name.
VFD Display Features Meet the ISIS interface (Indicate Status & Input Settings). The ISIS (pronounced eye-sis) allows you to view the current conditions and settings of your amplifier as well as change the many user-adjustable settings.The ISIS system consists of the VFD (Vacuum Fluorescent Display) and the nine soft touch buttons that make up the KEYPAD.
Features The BLAST 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 BLAST Port (Out) of one amp to the BLAST Port (In) 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.
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 (PAST) RCA jacks provide an unaltered signal output to feed another amplifier or component. Front The ground should be connected to the amplifier first before making any of the other connections.
USING THE SIGNAL OUTPUT JACKS (PAST) SX.4 series amplifiers are capable of operating into a minimum imedance of 2 ohms per channel in stereo mode and 4 ohms bridged in mono mode. AMP 1 can be bridged while AMP 2 is in stereo OR AMP 2 can be bridged while AMP 1 is in stereo. The Output (Pre Amp Signal Transfer) RCA jacks allow you to send the incoming signal from the AMP 1 RCA input jacks on one Kicker SX.4 series amplifier to another amplifier or processor without the need for Y cables.
BACK VIEW INSTALLATION You can use the Remote Bass Level Control to control the output of your amplifier from the front of the car. Your KICKER SX series amplifier uses the latest in Digital DSP control and provides you with valuable operational information about your amplifier, real-time diagnostics and a full multi-level menu-driven operating system to access and adjust your amplifier.
ESC HOME 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. When adjusting any amplifier control the UP and DOWN arrow keys have 2 speeds, normal and accelerated.
1.) Volt Now - Displays the current voltage at the amplifiers +12 volt terminal. 2.) Volt Min - Displays the lowest voltage seen at the amplifiers +12 volt terminal since being installed. 4.) Temp Now - Displays the current temperature of the amplifier. Use the UP and DOWN keys to select the HISTORY log entry you want to view. 6.
Operation Memory-1 Memory-2 Memory-3 Memory-4 ESC HOME 10.) REMOTE CTL - Here you select which amplifier is controlled by the Remote Bass Level Controller. The options are BOTH AMPS, AMP-1 ONLY and AMP-2 ONLY. ENT Use the UP and DOWN keys to select the memory location name you want to change and then press the ENT key to select it.If you change your mind and do not want to change the name, press and hold the HOME key for 1.5 seconds BEFORE making any changes.
Operation 15a.) BRIGHTNESS - Adjust the intensity level of the ISIS VFD display. Five selectable levels. MINIMUM - dimmest setting. LOW MEDIUM HIGH MAXIMUM - brightest setting. 15b.) TEMP C/F - Selects between Celsius (CELSIUS) or Fahrenheit (FAHRENHEIT) for temperature readouts. 15c.) HOLD TIME - Adjusts the speed of the scroll in the Default Screen display. Determines how long each menu item stays in the display before scrolling to the next item. Adjustable from 1 - 11 seconds. 15d.
Use the UP and DOWN keys to scroll through AMP-1 and AMP-2 and press the ENT key to select the amplifier you want to adjust. ESC HOME ENT Your options for each amplifier are frequency, bandwidth and boost/cut. Use the UP and DOWN keys to choose one and press the ENT key to select it. ESC HOME ENT FREQUENCY selects the center frequency of the EQ and can be set at any 1/12th octave frequency from 20 Hz - 20 kHz. (20 Hz to 20325 Hz) Use the UP and DOWN keys to select your frequency.
Use the UP and DOWN keys to scroll through AMP-1 and AMP-2 and press the ENT key to select the amplifier you want to adjust. ESC HOME ENT Your options for each amplifier are frequency and slop[e.Use the UP and DOWN keys to choose one and press the ENT key to select it. ESC HOME ENT FREQUENCY selects the crossover point and can be set at any 1/12th octave frequency from 10 Hz to 16 kHz. (10 Hz to 16132 Hz) Use the UP and DOWN keys to select your frequency.
Operation Use the UP and DOWN keys to scroll through AMP-1 and AMP-2 and press the ENT key to select the amplifier you want to adjust. Use the UP and DOWN keys to scroll through BOTH, LEFT and right. Press the ENT to select the one you want to mute. Now use the UP and DOWN keys to select from MUTE ON or mute off. Press the ESC key to return to the selected amplifier’s MUTE menu.
Operation Use the UP and DOWN keys to select LOCK IT UP or DON’T LOCK and then press the ENT key to accept your setting. ESC HOME ENT If you selected LOCK IT UP the display will now show UNLOCK. The controls are now locked out.Press the ESC key to return to the DEFAULT scrolling screen. If you selected DON’T LOCK then you will return to the MAIN menu and the amplifier will remain unlocked. NOTE... While your amplifier is in lock down you will notice the LOCK indicator on the ISIS VFD display is lit.
Operation There are four memory preset keys each with an indicator above it in the ISIS 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: *.) *.) *.) *.) *.) *.) *.
Help 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 improperly 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.
Here is a brief explanation of each KOMPRESSOR setting. Contour - 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. ATTACK - This preset applies expansion above the threshold A few words on the Kompressor.
