Your KMT6 long-range wakeboarding tower system enclosure was specially designed for “Livin’ Loud” out in the harsh marine environment. The system is made of advanced materials and construction techniques to maintain optimal performance for years to come.

Application

The Kicker KMT6 long-range tower system is specifically designed for mounting in the open-air. The injection-molded ABS enclosure and speakers are UV treated, splash resistant, and weather resilient. The woofers utilize a sealed cone and motor assembly, and an open-cell foam protects the tweeter. The KMT6’s unique exponential-horn-loaded 20mm titanium tweeter and dual 6.5 inch (165mm) woofers allow the system to produce clean and crisp sound over a long distance. Mount the KMT6 in your boat or get creative with a pair of them in the garage, on your 4x4 or Polaris Ranger’s roll bars, or in any other bar- mounted application.

INSTALLATION

INSTALLATION

Location

The sound produced by the KMT6 long-range tower system is directional. The enclosure may be mounted vertically or horizontally; the billet-aluminum mounting brackets can accommodate any angle for the optimum firing direction. Find the best location for stereophonic sound. If necessary, add more KMT6 systems in the installation to help distribute and balance the sound. After determining the best mounting locations, carefully check the areas where the mounting hardware and speaker cable will be placed.

 

Please allow two weeks of break-in time for the speaker to reach optimum performance.

KMT6LONG-RANGETOWERSYSTEM

The KMT6 long-range tower system's billet-aluminum mounting brackets use seven sets of ABS plastic inserts to fit most wakeboarding tower and roll bar diameters. See the chart above for the supported diameters.

To mount your KMT6 long-range tower system:

1.Using a 1/4" Allen wrench (6mm InbusTM-key), screw the mounting bracket bottom to the top of the enclosure with the supplied stainless steel socket-head cap screws. See Figure 2.

2. Determine the diameter of the metal bar you wish to mount the KMT6 long-range tower system to and choose the mounting insert with the appropriate inner diameter.

3.Place the bottom halves of the plastic inserts into the mounting bracket bottom and position the speaker mounts against the bar.

4.Place the remaining insert halves on the opposite side of the bar and tighten the

mounting bracket tops around the plastic inserts with a 1/4" Allen wrench until the speaker is secure.

Note: All specifications and performance figures are subject to change. Please visit the www.kicker.com for the most current information.

 

To get the best performance from your new Kicker speakers, we recommend using genuine Kicker Accessories and Wiring.
