Manual
Your KM coaxials were specially designed for “Livin’ Loud” out in the harsh marine environment. They are
made of advanced materials and construction techniques to maintain optimal performance for years to
come.
APPLICATION
The Kicker KM coaxial speakers are specifi cally designed for mounting in free-air applications. The
speakers do not require a sealed enclosure for optimum performance. It is important to isolate the sound
coming off the front of the driver from the sound radiating from the back of the driver. This isolation is
usually accomplished by using the driver in a factory speaker location, or in a location with a semi-isolated
rear chamber.
LOCATION
The sound produced by the KM coaxials is directional. Find the best location for stereophonic sound. If
necessary, add more KM coaxial speakers to the system to help distribute and balance the sound-stage.
After determining the best mounting locations, carefully check the areas where the mounting hardware will
be placed.
MOUNTING
Make sure the stainless steel mounting screws and U-type speed clips will not puncture the fuel cell,
wiring, or interfere with any mechanical parts on the underside of the mounting surface. Pre-drill the
mounting screw holes using a 7/64” (2.5mm) bit, and attach the KM coaxial speakers to the boat, by
fastening the supplied stainless steel coursethreaded screws to the boat’s structure. If applicable, utilize
the enclosed stainless steel U-type speed clips. Mount the speaker and grille right side-up to take
advantage of the coaxial system’s integrated moisture draining system. If the supplied hardware is not
applicable to your installation, some other means of securely
attaching the speakers to the vessel must be used.
