Hooking up the supplied wires to your Kicker DS-Series 3-Way Speakers is easy. The end of
each wire is terminated with a large and a small connector. The larger connector is crimped
to the gray wire and connects to the larger positive terminal of the speaker. The smaller
connector is crimped to the black wire and connects to the smaller negative terminal of the
speaker. The other end of these wires connects to your source unit or amplifier with the four
(4) included red butt crimp-down style connectors. The gray wire connects to the positive
output of the amplifier or source unit. The black wire connects to the negative output of the
amplifier or source unit. These connections can also be made with solder and heat shrink or
electrical tape to prevent electrical shorting of the speakers. See Figure 4.

Pro Tip: You are one Kicker Loaded-Subwoofer enclosure, one ZX Mono-Amplifier and a
few cables away from a slammin’ system! The Kicker ZX line of mono-amplifiers make it
easy to upgrade to solid bass with your existing or stock source unit. Please ask your dealer
about the Kicker Comp and CompVR Subwoofer upgrades.
If you have any questions about the installation of your Kicker DS-Series 3-Way Speakers,
see the Authorized Kicker Dealer where you made your purchase. For more advice on
the Technical Support tab, choose subject you are interested in, and then download or view
(405) 624-8583 for specific or unanswered questions.
Wiring two DS-Series 3-Way Speakers to a single channel
Modern high performance 3-Way speakers have a lower DC Resistance than what used to
be available. The Kicker DS-Series 3-Way speakers are rated at four ohms and work with
any source unit or amplifier designed to operate at a four ohm load. If you want to use two
DS-Series 3-Way speakers on each channel of your source unit or amplifier wire the
speakers in series, as shown in Figure 5. This will improve the sound quality, lower the total
harmonic distortion and lessen the thermal load at the source unit or amplifier. This may
prevent an amplifier from shutting down, due to over-current protection circuitry.
To get the best performance from your new Kicker speakers, we recommend using genuine Kicker Accessories and Wiring.

AcousticsLimitedWarranty
InternationalWarranty
Kicker warrants this product to be free from defects in material and workmanship under normal use for a period of
THREE (3) MONTHS from date of original purchase with receipt. When purchased from an Authorized KICKER Dealer
it is warranted for ONE (1) YEAR from date of original purchase with receipt. In all cases you must have the original
receipt. Should service be necessary under this warranty for any reason due to manufacturing defect or malfunction
during the warranty period, Kicker will repair or replace (at its discretion) the defective merchandise with equivalent
merchandise at no charge. Warranty replacements may have cosmetic scratches and blemishes. Discontinued
products may be replaced with more current equivalent products.
Contact your International Kicker dealer or distributor concerning specific procedures for your country's warranty
policies.
WARNING: 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.
This warranty is valid only for the original purchaser and is not extended to owners of the product subsequent to the
original purchaser. Any applicable implied warranties are limited in duration to a period of the express warranty as
provided herein beginning with the date of the original purchase at retail, and no warranties, whether express or
implied, shall apply to this product thereafter. Some states do not allow limitations on implied warranties; therefore
these exclusions may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights; however you may have other
rights that vary from state to state.
GARANTÍA INTERNACIONAL

específicos relacionados con las normas de garantía de su país.
ADVERTENCIA: Los excitadores Kicker son capaces de producir niveles de sonido que pueden dañar
permanentemente el oído. Subir el volumen del sistema hasta un nivel que produzca distorsión es más dañino para el
oído que escuchar un sistema sin distorsión al mismo volumen. El dolor es siempre una indicación de que el sonido es
muy fuerte y que puede dañar permanentemente el oído. Sea precavido cuando controle el volumen.
WHAT TO DO IF YOU NEED WARRANTY OR SERVICE
Defective merchandise should be returned to your local Authorized Stillwater Designs (Kicker) Dealer for warranty
Designs directly. You can confirm that a dealer is authorized by asking to see a current authorized dealer window
decal.

WARNUNG: KICKER-Treiber können einen Schallpegel erzeugen, der zu permanenten Gehörschäden führen kann!
Wenn Sie ein System auf einen Pegel stellen, der hörbare Verzerrungen erzeugt, schadet das Ihren Ohren mehr, als ein
nicht verzerrtes System auf dem gleichen Lautstärkepegel. Die Schmerzschwelle ist immer eine Anzeige dafür, dass
der Schallpegel zu laut ist und zu permanenten Gehörschäden führen kann. Seien Sie bei der Lautstärkeeinstellung
bitte vernünftig!
Include a copy of the original receipt with the purchase date clearly visible, and a "proof-of-purchase" statement listing
the Customer's name, Dealer's name and invoice number, and product purchased. Warranty expiration on items
without proof-of-purchase will be determined from the type of sale and manufacturing date code. Freight must be
prepaid; items sent freight-collect, or COD, will be refused.

AVERTISSEMENT: Les haut-parleurs Kicker ont la capacité de produire des niveaux sonores pouvant endommager
l'ouïe de façon irréversible ! L'augmentation du volume d'un système jusqu'à un niveau présentant une distorsion
audible endommage davantage l'ouïe que l'écoute d'un système sans distorsion au même volume. Le seuil de la
douleur est toujours le signe que le niveau sonore est trop élevé et risque d'endommager l'ouïe de façon irréversible.
Réglez le volume en faisant prevue de bon sens !
