TURES
The WXRC is a component we envisioned from the start to compliment your KICKER Warhorse
amplifier. That is why all Warhorse amplifiers have been built from day one with the ability to be
controlled remotely...and now you have the tool to do so, the WXRC. The WXRC gives you complete
access to up to 16 KICKER Warhorse amplifiers and incorporates the latest in microprocessor
technology which allows you to group and control each Warhorse amplifier in your system. The WXRC
puts all of your amplifier controls at your fingertips from the driver’s seat...plus a whole lot more! Please
read this manual so you have a thorough understanding of the capabilities, installation and operation of
your WXRC.
