Use the same gauge wire as recommended for the amplifier’s Wiring power connection to the battery. Adding an additional ground wire between the car battery’s negative post and the car chassis Signal can be input into the amplifier using either the low level of this same gauge (or larger) is highly recommended. Adding or RCA input connections or the high level speaker level upgrading the ground from the case of the alternator to the car connections. Using the low level RCA connections is the c

System Diagrams The following diagrams shows the most common configurations for your Kicker KX2500.1 series amplifier. MONO CHANNEL OPERATION The KX2500.1 amplifier is capable of operating into a minimum impedance of 2 ohms ( Ω). If you are using a single voice coil woofer be sure the impedance of the voice coil is equal to or greater than 2 Ω. If using dual voice coil subwoofer or driving multiple subwoofers, be sure the net impedance presented to the amplifier is at least 2 Ω or greater. RE

Installation TWO KX2500.1 AMPLIFIERS & ONE DVC SUBWOOFER This diagram shows how to power a single Dual Voice Coil (DVC) subwoofer using two KX2500.1 amplifiers. For maximum power output from your KX2500.1 to the subwoofer each voice coil should be 2 Ω impedance. Do not connect to voice coils with an impedance lower than 2 Ω! Be sure to properly power and ground each amplifier according to the minimum specifications shown on page 6 to insure proper operation and maximum power output. NOTE: The

USING THE SIGNAL OUTPUT JACKS (PAST) The Output (Pre Amp Signal Transfer) RCA jacks allow you to send the incoming signal from one Kicker KX2500.1 series amplifier to another amplifier or processor without the need for Y Mounting Surface REMOTE BASS cables. The signal from the PAST jacks is identical to the signal LEVEL CONTROL fed to the amplifier via its RCA input jacks or the High Level inputs and is not affected by the amplifier’s built in crossover. WARNING!!! Most head units with high v

Operation GAIN CONTROL Navigation Remember, the gain control is not a volume control, it matches the output of the head unit to the input level of the amplifier and Your Kicker amplifier has three rotary controls on top and one must be adjusted properly for best performance. All the way up switch on the end panel. These controls ensure the or down is not necessarily the best.Turn the head unit up to reliability and performance of the amplifier, so they need to be about 3/4 volume. (eg. If the

Trouble shooting If your amplifier does not appear to be working, check obvious things first such as blown fuses, poor or incorrect wiring connections, gain controls properly set, etc. There are two LEDs on the end panel of your Kicker KX series amplifier, one green and one red. When the green LED is lit this indicates the amplifier is turned on and no trouble exists. If the green LED turns off and the red LED is lit this indicates that the protection circuitry (SORT) is engaged. The power ind
