The SS Component Speaker Systems are  
absolutely the best sounding full-range  
speakers to ever leave the KICKER Livin’  
Loud Labs. We dare to say (and we tested  
quite a few) they are the best sounding  
speakers on the market today...period!  
There are many state-of-the-art features in  
these systems and they are briefly  
described in the following Features  
section. If you find yourself awake in the  
middle of the night with the crave for White  
Castles and a thirst for more in-depth

When mounting to a door panel it is best to get the tweeter as high up on the door as  
possible and as far forward as possible without interference from the dashboard. Be sure  
the chosen place is flat and space behind the door panel allows the use of the Tweeter  
Mounting Nut.  
Follow the same rules if mounting to a rear deck, side panel or any other  
custom location. Be sure you have chosen a flat location with plenty of  
clearance behind it for the necessary wiring and mounting hardware.  
After checking for clearance, cut a 1-15/16” (4.9 cm) hole in the desired mounting  
location. It may be necessary to cut a 2-1/2” (6.4 cm) clearance hole in any sheet metal  
or panel behind your chosen mounting panel to allow clearance for the Tweeter  
Mounting Nut.

Midrange Mounting  
Your KICKER drivers are specifically designed for mounting in free-air applications.  
While the speakers do not need a sealed box for optimum performance, it is  
important to isolate the sound coming off the front of the driver from the sound  
radiating from the back of the driver. This isolation is usually accomplished by using the  
correct size driver in a factory speaker location.

Exterior Door  
Front Wave  
Back Wave

Package Tray  
Reinforcing  
Panel  
The ideal mounting scheme is to have a sturdy panel to cut out or to reinforce an  
existing panel with Masonite or medium density fiberboard. If the panel can flex at all, it  
will decrease the output of the driver and keep it from sounding it’s best.  
The door or trunk act like an enclosure to keep the backwave from reaching the front  
side of the driver. In any mounting situation, check for interference from other  
mechanical systems in the vehicle. Watch for window mechanisms, hinges, trunk  
springs, wire harnesses, and anything that would be affected by the installation of these  
drivers.

crossover in the car door, exercise  
caution as water can accumulate in the  
bottom of the car door. Keep the  
crossover high in the door and shielded  
from water.  
Once you have selected a mounting location, remove the crossover’s top by pulling it  
straight off the crossover. It is held in place with 3 clips at the indicated locations.

Wiring  
There are three sets of high quality 16 Gauge speaker wire supplied with the Kicker  
SS Component Systems. The longest set of wires is for connecting your  
amplifier or source unit to the crossover network. One of the shorter pairs is to  
connect the midrange output of the crossover to the spring loaded binding posts on the  
Midrange Driver. The last set connects the tweeter output of the crossover to the short  
wire coming out of the tweeter; join using the supplied Butt Connectors.  
If you wish to use your own wire or need to lengthen the wire to fit your needs, we  
recommend using at least 16 gauge wire.  
Use the supplied Allen Wrench to loosen and tighten the connections at the crossover.

When installing the speaker wire into your car be sure to avoid sharp edges and the  
possibility of it getting pinched. Be careful to keep it out of the path of moving  
mechanical parts such as the steering column, brake pedal, gas pedal, clutch pedal,  
emergency brake, heater or AC control linkage and any other moving mechanical  
systems. Be careful when re-installing any kick panel, sill plate or other interior body  
panel removed to route the wire that you don’t damage the wire with attachment clips or  
screws.  
If running the wire into a door, an existing boot in the door jamb is the ideal place to  
run the wires, but sometimes this does not  
exist or is inaccessible. Drilling holes to run  
wires through is very tricky, and caution must  
be exercised not to drill into other wiring or  
mechanisms. Any time a wire is run through a  
bare hole, it is necessary to insert a rubber or  
plastic grommet to

Adjustments  
The SS Series Component Crossover is a very high quality unit designed to offer the  
best combination of sound quality and driver protection.  
The IPC (Illuminated Protection Circuit) is a proven design feature Kicker has used for  
many years in all our passive crossover networks where tweeters are involved. This  
circuit protects the tweeter from excessive amplifier power and amplifier clipping. It is  
normal for these to illuminate during operation.  
The Tweeter Attenuation Switch is used to  
level match your tweeter’s output level to the  
midrange based on varied  
mounting locations, car acoustics or your  
personal taste.  
There are three positions to choose from:  
+3 dB, +1.5 dB and +0 dB.  
Tweeter Attenuation Switch  
IPC  
(Illuminated Protection Circuit)  
(+3dB, +1.5dB, +0dB)  
The +0 dB is the reference sound quality  
position. The +1.5 dB and +3 dB positions can be used if you need more tweeter output  
due to personal taste or car acoustics.  
To change the output level simply slide the switch to the desired position.  
After reading this manual, if you have any questions about the installation of your Kicker  
components, visit your local Authorized KICKER Dealer. You may also contact Kicker

Stillwater Designs, 5021 North Perkins Road, Stillwater, OK  
74075  
P.O. Box 459 • Stillwater, Oklahoma 74076 • U.S.A.  
• 405 624-8510  
The RMA number must be clearly marked on the outside of the  
package. Return only defective components. Return of entire  
cabinets, system packs, pairs, etc. increases your return freight  
charges. Non-defective items received will be returned freight  
collect.  
KICKER drivers 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!  
WARNING:  
Include a dated proof-of-purchase stating the Customer  
name, Dealer name, product purchased and date of purchase.  
Warranty expiration on items without proof-of-purchase will be  
determined from type of sale and the manufacturing date code.
