Kicker 10IX1000.1, 10IX500.1 manual ZXRC REMOTE BASS sold separately

Input Level: The RCA inputs on KICKER IX amplifi ers are capable of receiving either Hi or Low-level signals from your source unit. If the only output available from your source unit is a Hi-Level signal, simply press in the Input Level switch on the amplifi er. Refer to the wiring section of this manual for additional instructions.

Remote Bass: With the KICKER ZXRC remote bass level control (sold separately), you have the ability to control the output level of the amplifi er remotely. To mount the ZXRC remote bass level control, simply screw the metal bracket to the chosen location, then slide the housing onto the bracket until it snaps into place. Run the cable from the controller to the “Remote Bass” jack on the amplifi er chassis.

Input Gain Control: The input gain control is not a volume control. It matches the output of the source unit to the input level of the amplifi er. Turn the source unit up to about 3/4 volume (if the source unit goes to 30, turn it to 25). Next, slowly turn (clockwise) the gain on the amplifi er up until you can hear audible distortion, then turn it down a little.

Crossover Control: The variable crossover on the front of the amplifi er allows you to adjust the crossover frequency from 50–200Hz. The setting for this control is subjective; 80Hz is a good place to start.

Bass Boost Control: The variable bass boost control on the front of the amplifi er is designed to give you increased output, 0–18dB, at 40 Hz. The setting for this control is subjective. If you turn it up, you must readjust the input gain control to avoid clipping the amplifi er.
