INSTALLATION

The Kicker Warhorse amplifier was specifically designed for competition car audio. Sporting 10,000

supply amplifies each polarity of the audio signal separately through its two voice coil outputs to

 

RMS watts of pure Kicker power, the ultra-high-efficiency design of the WX amplifier revolutionizes

traditional methods of amplification. While most amplifiers use a power supply combined with an amplification circuit to amplify the audio signal, the Warhorse skips a step by amplifying the audio signal directly from its patent pending signal-modulated power supply. The signal-modulated power

optimally drive dual-voice coil subwoofers and provide a competitive edge in SPL contests. From gold plated power connectors and low profile planar transformers to the latest Texas Instruments DSP technology, no expense was spared to make the Warhorse the most powerful and efficient mono amplifier in mobile audio.

1. Mounting Choose a structurally sound location to mount your Kicker amplifier. The amplifier should be mounted as close as possible to the battery network and be electrically isolated from the vehicle ground. The distance from the battery network to the amplifier should not exceed 48” (122cm). It is important to mount the amplifier before running any wires or supplying power to the amplifier. The amplifier secures to the vehicle with an insertable mounting bracket used in combination with two mounting holes located on the bottom plate of the control panel. You are solely responsible for securely fastening the WX amplifier in your vehicle.

Before mounting the amplifier, the control panel shield must be removed. The control panel should remain accessible for adjustment, leaving enough room to access the mounting holes and remove or attach the control panel shield. 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 amplifier. After choosing the best location, secure the mounting bracket to the vehicle. Use the bracket as a template to drill nine (9) holes with a 3/16” (4.8mm) bit into the appropriate locations. Attach the bracket to the mounting location with the nine (9) supplied #10 (5mm) screws inserted through the nine (9) included screw insulators.

Next, slide the amplifier over the mounting bracket and into the mounting slot. Make sure the mounting bracket is properly inserted into the mounting slot and locate the two mounting holes on the bottom plate of the control panel. Use the mounting holes as a template and drill two (2) holes using a 3/16” (4.8mm) bit into the appropriate locations. Secure the bottom plate of the control panel with the two (2) #10 (5mm) screws.

Caution The Kicker WX amplifier outputs extremely high voltage signals from the voice coil (speaker) outputs and can cause serious injury or death from electrocution. It is imperative to read the manual carefully and follow all of the recommended safety precautions before installing the WX amplifier.
