5. Instalacija
Pravilna instalacija je ključna za performanse i dugotrajnost vašeg amplifier. If you are unsure about any part of the installation process, consult a professional car audio installer.
5.1 Montiranje Amplifier
Choose a mounting location that provides adequate ventilation and protects the amplifier from moisture. The amplifier can be mounted horizontally or vertically using the supplied hardware.
- Ensure the mounting surface is solid and free from obstructions.
- Drill pilot holes for the mounting screws, taking care not to damage any vehicle components behind the surface.
- Osigurajte amplifier firmly using the provided screws and washers.

5.2 Ožičenje
All wiring connections should be made with the vehicle's battery disconnected.
5.2.1 Power Connection (+12V)
Connect a suitable gauge power wire directly from the vehicle's positive battery terminal to the +12V terminal on the amplifier. An inline fuse holder with the appropriate fuse rating (refer to specifications) must be installed within 18 inches (45 cm) of the battery.
5.2.2 Ground Connection (GND)
Connect a wire of the same gauge as the power wire from the GND terminal on the amplifier to a clean, solid metal point on the vehicle's chassis. Ensure the connection point is free of paint, rust, or debris for optimal conductivity.
5.2.3 Remote Turn-On Connection (REM)
Connect a 18-gauge wire from the REM terminal on the amplifier to the remote turn-on output of your source unit (head unit). This wire signals the amplifier to turn on and off with the source unit.
5.2.4 Ulazne veze
The CXA8001 amplifier supports both low-level (RCA) and high-level (speaker-level) inputs.
- Ulaz niskog nivoa (RCA): Connect RCA cables from the subwoofer output of your source unit to the INPUT RCA jacks on the amplifier.
- High-Level Input (Speaker-Level): If your source unit does not have RCA outputs, connect the speaker wires from your source unit directly to the INPUT terminals on the ampIsključivač. Osigurajte ispravan polaritet.
5.2.5 Speaker Output Connection
Connect your subwoofer(s) to the SPEAKER terminals on the amplifier. Ensure the total impedance of the connected subwoofers is within the amplifier's stable operating range (1-Ohm minimum). Observe correct polarity for all speaker connections.

6. Rad i podešavanja
Jednom instaliran, amplifier's settings can be adjusted to optimize sound performance.

6.1 Kontrola pojačanja
Kontrola GAIN odgovara amplifier's input sensitivity to the output level of your source unit. To set the gain:
- Turn the GAIN control on the amplifier all the way down (counter-clockwise).
- Turn the source unit volume up to about 75% of its maximum level.
- Slowly increase the GAIN control on the amplifier until you hear slight audible distortion, then back it off slightly.
6.2 Low-Pass Filter (LPF) Crossover
The LPF control sets the upper frequency limit for the subwoofer. Frequencies above this setting will be filtered out. Adjust this control to blend the subwoofer's output seamlessly with your main speakers.
6.3 Bass Boost (KickEQ)
The BASS BOOST control provides an adjustable low-frequency enhancement. Use this sparingly to add impact to your bass. Excessive bass boost can lead to distortion and potential damage to your subwoofers.
6.4 Podzvučni filter
The SUBSONIC FILTER removes ultra-low frequencies that are below the audible range and can cause subwoofers to over-excurt without producing useful sound. This protects your subwoofers and improves overall sound quality. Adjust this to a frequency slightly below the tuning frequency of your ported enclosure, or around 25-30 Hz for sealed enclosures.
7. Održavanje
The Kicker 46CXA8001 amplifier requires minimal maintenance. Follow these guidelines:
- Povremeno provjeravajte sve spojeve ožičenja kako biste se uvjerili da su sigurni i da nema korozije.
- Zadrži ampČistite uređaj, bez prašine i ostataka. Za čišćenje koristite meku, suhu krpu.
- Osigurajte adekvatan protok zraka oko ampusisivač za sprečavanje pregrijavanja.
