KX Amplifiers
Installation
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.
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 here may require additional
cooling needs such as fans or venting to allow cool operation. 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 amplifiers mounting location.
Now that you are ready to mount your amplifier, use the
supplied 3mm allen wrench to remove the amplifier EndKap. This
will give you access to the mounting holes in the
amplifier and all wiring connections.
