PXA.1-SERIES AMPLIFIERS
OWNER’S MANUAL
INSTALLATION
Mounting:
Choose a structurally sound location to mount your KICKER amplifi er. Make sure there are no items
behind the area where the screws will be driven. Choose a location that allows at least 4” (10cm) of open
ventilation for the amplifi er. Drill four holes using a 7/64” (3mm) bit and use the supplied #8 screws to mount the
amplifi er.
Wiring:
Disconnect the vehicle’s battery to avoid an electrical short. Then, connect the PXA harness to the
amplifi er. A good ground connections is important. If this amplifi er is mounted in the front fairing of a motorcycle, it
will be best to extend the ground wire all the way to the battery.
The PXA amplifi ers have the capability to receive almost any level of input signal. If a Hi-Level signal is coming
from the speaker leads of the source unit, simply cut off the RCA jacks and connect it directly to the exposed
wires. Set the Input Level switch to Hi. Set the Auto Turn-On to DC. If speaker leads are not available from your
source unit, use an RCA stereo cable to connect directly to the RCA connectors of the PXA amplifi er. Set the
Input Level switch to Lo. Set the Auto Turn-On switch to +12V, and use the blue remote trigger wire to turn the
amplifi er on.
