Mono-Block Models: SX650.1 / SX1250.1 Attention: 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. ALWAYS KEEP YOUR RECEIPT! Low Impedance Operation Stable into 2 ohm (SX650.1) or 1 ohm (SX1250.1) mono loads. SORT Protection Circuitry (Short circuit, Over-voltage, Congratulations! Please take a moment and record the information asked for below in the provided area.
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.
Features The BLAST Port is used to connect the Remote Bass Level Controller and for transferring control signals from one SX amplifier to another SX amplifier. An RJ45 cable is required to connect the BLAST Port (Out) of one amp to the BLAST Port (In) of another. This is only required if you want to control more than one amplifier with the same Bass Level Controller. More details on this further in the manual.
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. The ground should be connected to the amplifier first before making any of the other connections.
AMPLIFIER STRAPPING SX.1 series amplifiers are capable of powering multiple speakers or voice coils wired in series as long as the minimum impedance does not drop below 2 ohms (SX650.1) or 1 ohm (SX1250.1). SX.1 series amplifiers are capable of being strapped together to provide twice the power into twice their rated minimum impedance. Only like model amps can be strapped together. In other words, the SX650.1 can only be strapped to another SX650.1 and the SX1250.1 can only be strapped to another SX1250.
BACK VIEW The Remote Bass Level Controller can be used to adjust the output level of both the amplifiers that are strapped together. SIDE VIEW 1.) Mount the Remote Bass Level Controller in the front of your vehicle and plug in the supplied cable. Mounting Surface SUPPLIED CABLE SOURCE UNIT 2.) Route the supplied cable to the primary amplifier and connect to its BLAST In jack.
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.

Operation Press the ENT key to enter the LO-PASS adjustment menu. Use the UP and DOWN keys to scroll through frequency and SLOPE and press the ENT key to select. ESC HOME ENT The KICKER SX amplifier monitors and prevents any low pass crossover point from being any closer than 1/3 octave from the high pass crossover point. If you cannot set the low pass crossover where you want then check the HPF indicator and see if it is flashing.

NOTE... While your amplifier is in lock down you will notice the LOCK indicator on the ISIS VFD display is lit.
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.
