Two Channel Models: SX400.2 / SX500.2 / SX600.2 / SX900.2 Attention: Congratulations! Please take a moment and record the information asked for below in the provided area. It is also a good idea to attach the original sales receipt or a copy of it to this page for future reference If for any reason you require service on this amplifier during the warranty period, you will need to provide this information and a copy of the receipt to Kicker to validate your warranty.
VFD Display Features Meet the ISIS interface (Indicate Status & Input Settings). The ISIS (pronounced eye-sis) allows you to view the current conditions and settings of your amplifier as well as change the many user-adjustable settings.The ISIS system consists of the VFD (Vacuum Fluorescent Display) and the nine soft touch buttons that make up the KEYPAD.
The speaker terminals are custom-machined connectors with full protective shrouds and are designed to accept heavy gauge speaker wire assures maximum power transfer and damping with minimal power loss. Power LED indicates amplifier is powered up and operating. Check Fuse LED indicates a fault with the end panel fuses. This could be fuses which are not seated properly, faulty fuses or blown fuses.
Signal is input into the amplifier using the low level RCA input connections. If your source unit does not have RCA output connectors you will need to use a Hi-Lo level signal adapter. See your Kicker dealer for more details on this. The output (PAST) RCA jacks provide an unaltered signal output to feed another amplifier or component. SOURCE UNIT The ground should be connected to the amplifier first before making any of the other connections.
USING THE SIGNAL OUTPUT JACKS (PAST) SX.2 series amplifiers are capable of operating into a minimum impedance of 4 ohms mono and 2 ohms stereo simultaneously with the use of passive crossovers. The Output (Pre Amp Signal Transfer) RCA jacks allow you to send the incoming signal from one Kicker SX series amplifier to another amplifier or processor without the need for Y cables.
BACK VIEW INSTALLATION You can use the Remote Bass Level Control to control the output of your amplifier from the front of the car. Your KICKER SX series amplifier uses the latest in Digital DSP control and provides you with valuable operational information about your amplifier, real-time diagnostics and a full multi-level menu-driven operating system to access and adjust your amplifier.
Pressing the key and holding it in for longer than 1.5 seconds will activate the accelerated scrolling mode and scroll through the menu items at a much faster rate. Releasing the key will return it to normal speed mode. Let’s start at the HISTORY item in the SICK BAY MENU again but instead press and hold the HOME key for 1.5 seconds. Doing this will take us all the way back to the MAIN PRESS & MENU in one key press.
1.) Volt Now - Displays the current voltage at the amplifiers +12 volt terminal. 2.) Volt Min - Displays the lowest voltage seen at the amplifiers +12 volt terminal since being installed. 4.) Temp Now - Displays the current temperature of the amplifier. Use the UP and DOWN keys to select the HISTORY log entry you want to view. 6.

Gain Range - Sets the input voltage window of the UltraMatch gain control. Possible choices are: ESC HOME ENT Use the UP and DOWN keys to select the memory location name you want to change and then press the ENT key to select it.If you change your mind and do not want to change the name, press and hold the HOME key for 1.5 seconds BEFORE making any changes.
Operation Use the UP and DOWN keys to select SKIP RESET or DO RESET and then press the ENT key to perform the selected action. ESC HOME Now use the UP and DOWN keys to increase or decrease the gain of the selected channel(s) in .5 dB increments from 0 dB to +12 dB. (.0 to 12.0) ENT 17.) About - This menu item will display information about the DAP (Digital Audio Processor) hardware, software and build date.
Operation Press the ENT key to enter the LO-PASS menu. Use the UP and DOWN keys to scroll through frequency and slop[e. Press the ENT to select the one you want to adjust. HOME ESC HOME ESC ENT ENT FREQUENCY selects the crossover point and can be set at any 1/12th octave frequency from 30 Hz to 20 kHz. (30 Hz to 20325 Hz) Use the UP and DOWN keys to select your frequency. Press the ESC to return to the LO-PASS menu.
Mute MENU - Here you can mute each channel(s) output for channel(s) output between 0 or 180 degrees. setup or testing purposes. Press the ENT key to enter the PHASE menu.

Operation There are four memory preset keys each with an indicator above it in the ISIS VFD display. The indicator will illuminate if that memory preset is currently in use. Each preset stores all the values for each of the following amplifier controls: *.) *.) *.) *.) *.) *.) *.
Help If your amplifier does not appear to be working, check obvious things first such as blown fuses, poor or incorrect wiring connections, crossovers set improperly, gain controls improperly set, etc. There are two LEDs on the end panel of your KICKER SX series amplifier, one green and one red. The green LED indicates the amplifier is turned on. The red LED indicates that there is a fault condition with the end panel fuses and they need checked.
Here is a brief explanation of each KOMPRESSOR setting. Contour - This preset applies expansion below the threshold point to provide a fuller sound at lower volume levels. Effect decreases at higher volume levels. Nice effect for someone wanting a fuller sound at low to moderate listening levels. ATTACK - This preset applies expansion above the threshold point to provide a nice quick punch or attack to the music. Effect increase with higher volume levels.
