3 BX AMPLIFIERS
INSTALLATION
Mounting: Choose a structurally sound location to mount your KICKER amplifier. Avoid any damage of the
vehicle’s components like wires, cables, board computer, seat belts, gastank where the screws be driven.
Ensure that this chosen location provide sufficient air circulation for the amplifier. Do not mount the device into
small or sealed spaces without air circulation near by heat dispersing parts or electrical parts of the vehicle. Do
not mount the amplifier on top of a subwooferbox or any other vibrating parts, thereby parts in the inside of the
amplifier may get loosen. Drill four holes using a 3mm bit and use the supplied screws to mount the amplifier.
Wiring:
Disconnect the ground connection of vehicle’s battery to avoid an electrical short. Then, connect the
ground wire to the amplifier. Connect the GROUND terminal with a suitable contact ground point on the vehicle’s
chassis. The ground wire must be as short as possible and must be connected to a blank metallic point at the
vehicle’s chassis. Ensure that this ground point has a stable and safe electric connection to the negative “–”pole
of the battery. Check this ground wire from the battery to the ground point if possible and enforce it, if required.
Adding an additional ground wire of a larger gauge between the battery’s negative post and the vehicle chassis is
recommended.

Install a fuse within 30cm of the battery and in-line with the power cable connected to your amplifier. If you ever
need to remove the amplifier from the vehicle after it has been installed, the ground wire should be the last wire
disconnected from the amplifier-just the opposite as when you installed it.

AMP 1
The BX amplifier has two input sections.
The RCA inputs can process the low
level signals from your car stereo’s
source unit. The HI LEVEL INPUT is
suitable to connect loudspeaker wires
of your headunit, if your headunit is not
equipped with preamplifier RCA outputs.
Keep the audio signal cable away from
factory wiring harnesses and other power
wiring if possible. If you need to cross
this wiring, cross it at a 90 degree angle
if possible.
WARNING: Never use the RCA inputs and the HI LEVEL INPUTS at the same time.
Connect the loudspeaker wires of your vehicle according to the drawing above with the included HI LEVEL
INPUT jack. The ground wire (black) must be connected with the ground of vehicle’s chassis.
Then, plug-in the HI LEVEL INPUT jack into the HI LEVEL INPUT socket.
