Wiring: Disconnect the vehicle’s battery to avoid an electrical short. Then, connect the ground wire to the

ampliﬁ er. Make the ground wire short, 24” (60cm) or less, and 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.

The IX ampliﬁ er has dual input sensitivity differential RCA inputs which will receive either high or low level signals

from your car stereo’s source unit. A high-level signal can be run from the source unit’s speaker outputs to the

stereo RCA input on the end panel of the ampliﬁ er using the KICKER ZISL as shown (make sure you set the IX

ampliﬁ er’s input level switch to “HI”). Alternatively, the signal can be delivered to the ampliﬁ er using the low-level

RCA outputs on the source unit. Set the input level switch on the end panel of the ampliﬁ er to “LO”. Either input

method will provide a low-level output signal at the RCA output, which effectively passes the audio signal to

another ampliﬁ er or component. 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 within 18” (45cm) of the battery and in-line with the power cable connected to your ampliﬁ er. Install

a second fuse within 18” (45cm) of the ampliﬁ er. If you ever need to remove the ampliﬁ er from the vehicle after it

has been installed, the ground wire should be the last wire disconnected from the ampliﬁ er--just the opposite as

when you installed it.
