КМА amplifier is a Class D, 4-channel amplifier providing 500 watts of dynamic power. It features a conformal-coated circuit board for marine use, variable 12dB crossover, and KickEQ variable 6dB bass boost for sound customization.
4. Поставување и инсталација
Proper installation is crucial for optimal performance and safety. Refer to the following guidelines for each component.
4.1 KMC2 Receiver Installation
- Монтирање: The KMC2 is designed to fit into a standard 3-inch gauge opening. Ensure sufficient depth and clearance behind the mounting surface for wiring. Secure the receiver using the supplied mounting hardware.
- Енергетско поврзување: Connect the yellow wire to a constant 12V power source, the red wire to a switched 12V accessory source, and the black wire to a reliable ground point. Use appropriate inline fuses as recommended by KICKER.
- Излези на звучници: Connect the KMC2's speaker output wires to the KMFC tower speakers. Note that the KMC2 provides 25W x 4, which is suitable for direct speaker connection, but for full power, it should be used with the KMA amplifier via RCA outputs.
- RCA излези: Connect the KMC2's full-range RCA outputs to the input of the KMA ampживописен.
- USB/RCA Inputs: Connect USB devices or external audio sources to the respective inputs.
- Далечински управувач (опционално): If using the KRC12 remote (sold separately), connect it to the designated port on the KMC2.
4.2 KMFC Tower Speakers Installation
- Монтирање: Use the included 316L stainless steel mounting hardware to securely attach the speakers to your vessel's tower or roll bar. Ensure the mounting location can support the weight of the speakers and withstand marine conditions.
- Поврзување на звучниците: Connect the speaker wires from the KMA amplifier (or KMC2 receiver) to the KMFC speakers, observing correct polarity (+ to + and - to -).
- LED жици: Connect the speaker's LED wires to a 12V power source. The speakers come with a seven-color LED system. For advanced control (20 colors and 19 lighting modes), an optional KMLC remote control is required.
4.3 KMA Ampпожива инсталација
- Монтирање: Изберете сува, добро проветрена локација за amplifier, away from direct sunlight and excessive heat. Secure it using the provided 316L stainless-steel hardware.
- Приклучоци за напојување: Поврзете го amplifier's power and ground terminals to the battery using ABYC/NMMA-compliant power connections. Ensure proper fusing. Connect the remote turn-on wire to the KMC2's remote output.
- Влезни врски: Connect the RCA outputs from the KMC2 receiver to the RCA inputs of the KMA ampживописен.
- Излезни врски: Connect the KMFC tower speakers to the amplifier's speaker output terminals. The KMA is a 4-channel amplifier, allowing for individual speaker connections or bridged configurations.
- Crossover and Bass Boost: Adjust the variable 12dB crossover and KickEQ variable 6dB bass boost settings on the amplifier to optimize sound quality for your specific setup and preferences. Start with flat settings and make small adjustments.
