Overview
IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNING
PROLONGED CONTINUOUS OPERATION OF AN AMPLIFIER, SPEAKER, OR
SUBWOOFER IN A DISTORTED, CLIPPED OR OVER-POWERED MANNER
CAN CAUSE YOUR AUDIO SYSTEM TO OVERHEAT, POSSIBLY CATCHING
FIRE AND RESULTING IN SERIOUS DAMAGE TO YOUR COMPONENTS
AND/OR VEHICLE. AMPLIFIERS REQUIRE UP TO 4 INCHES (10CM) OPEN
VENTILATION. SUBWOOFERS SHOULD BE MOUNTED WITH AT LEAST 1
INCH (2.5CM) CLEARANCE BETWEEN THE FRONT OF THE SPEAKER AND
ANY SURFACE. KICKER PRODUCTS ARE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING SOUND
LEVELS THAT CAN PERMANENTLY DAMAGE YOUR HEARING! TURNING UP A
SYSTEM TO A LEVEL THAT HAS AUDIBLE DISTORTION IS MORE DAMAGING
TO YOUR EARS THAN LISTENING TO AN UNDISTORTED SYSTEM AT THE
SAME VOLUME LEVEL. THE THRESHOLD OF PAIN IS ALWAYS AN INDICATOR
THAT THE SOUND LEVEL IS TOO LOUD AND MAY PERMANENTLY DAMAGE
YOUR HEARING. PLEASE USE COMMON SENSE WHEN CONTROLLING
VOLUME.
The PXA-series have been engineered
to handle the extreme conditions
of powersports and outdoor audio
applications, provide massive amounts of
power, and continue to be cutting-edge
efficient, making them perfect for less
robust charging systems. Use with any
combination of KICKER products, whether
powersports speakers, full-range speakers,
or KICKER’s classic aftermarket speakers.
And don’t let the small, weatherproof
footprint fool you; this amp came to play.

Specifications
Note: All specifications and performance
figures are subject to change. Please visit
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. Please allow two
weeks of break-in time for the speakers to
reach optimum performance.
Pro Tip: You’re a KICKER amplifier and a
few cables away from a full system upgrade
that will dominate any factory system!
KICKER line of amplifiers make it easy to
upgrade to solid bass with your existing
or stock source unit. Also, ask your dealer
about KICKER Speaker upgrades.

Choose a structurally sound location
to mount your KICKER amplifier. 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. Drill four
holes using a 7/64” (3mm) bit and use the
supplied #8 screws to mount the amplifier.

Wiring
Disconnect the vehicle’s battery to avoid an
electrical short. A good ground connection
is important. If the PXA is mounted in the
front fairing of a motorcycle, it will be best
to extend the ground wire all the way to
the battery. Make the ground wire short,
24” (60cm) or less and, if not conneted
to the battery, connect it to a paint-and-
corrosion-free, solid metal area of the
vehicle’s chassis. Adding an additional
ground wire of this same gauge (or larger)
between the battery’s negative post and
the vehicle chassis is recommended. Keep
the audio signal cable away from factory
wiring harnesses and other power wiring. If
you need to cross this wiring, cross it at a
90 degree angle. Install a fuse at the blue
+12V constant wire. Fuse installation should
be as close as possible to the battery, and
no further than 18” (45cm) of the battery,
and in-line with the harness’ power cable,
which is connected to your PXA Amplifier.
Make sure the power wire is routed so that
it will not be damaged, crimped, or shorted.

If you ever need to remove the amplifier
from the vehicle after it has been installed,
the ground wire should be the last wire
disconnected from the amplifier; just the
opposite as when you installed it.

For multiple amplifier installations where
distribution blocks are used, each amplifier
should have its proper-rated fuse, or
breaker, installed between the amplifier and
the distribution block within eighteen inches
of the block, or on the distribution block if it
provides for fusing. The primary power wire
should also be fused between the battery
and distribution block, within eighteen
inches of the battery’s positive terminal, with
a fuse or breaker rated at least to the sum
of the individual amplifier’s fuse values, but
doesn’t exceed the capacity of your wiring.

Operation
Features
Automatic Turn-On: The PXA-series
offers two different automatic turn-on
modes; +12V and DC Offset.
• Remote Turn-On: Run 18 gauge wire from the Remote
Turn-On Lead on your source unit to the blue REM wire
on the PXA amplifier’s wiring harness.
• DC Offset Turn-On: The DC Offset mode detects a
>2.5V DC offset from the HI-Level speaker outputs when
the source unit has been turned on.
To access the operational features of the
PXA amplifier, remove the six Phillips-head
screws from the bottom of the amp which
are covering the operation panel.

Input Level: The RCA inputs on
KICKER PXA amplifiers are capable
of receiving either Hi or Low-level
signals from your source unit. When
using a Hi-Level signal, simply
set the Input Level switch on the
amplifier to HI.
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 amplifier. Maximum power
out of the amplifier is possible with
the gain in the lowest position.
Incorrectly setting the gain can result
in distorted output or damage to, and
