Class D KICKER Power

Introducing the newest line of Kicker amplifiers, the IX Series. For the first time ever in Kicker history, they have entered the world of full range Class D technology. The amplifiers have been carefully designed and engineered with the incredible attention to detail, intense research and development, as well as proprietary Kicker components that only Kicker amplifiers are made with. The result is a dependable and highly efficient Class D amplifier that can produce an enormous amount of power. The Kicker IX amplifiers also feature the smallest amp chassis that Kicker has ever manufactured. The compact size enables the amplifier to fit in the smallest compartments of the vehicle. These amps are so small that some installers have been able to put these amplifiers inside of a glove compartment! The amps are so efficient that they are able to run all day long with little current draw and very little heat generated. Even though the heat sink is less then 10" in length, the amps still are barely warm to the touch after hours of intense use. Kicker makes the choice easy. For a high-powered, highly efficient, and compact amplifier, choose the Kicker IX amplifiers.

500 Watts of Real Kicker Power

When it comes to powering a subwoofer, there is no replacement for real power. The Kicker IX500.1 is a single channel amplifier that will produce enough power for just about any mid-level car audio subwoofer. Inside the small chassis is a powerful amplifier that can produce 500 watts of true Kicker power. The CEA-2006 compliance ensures that you are receiving at least the power ratings that Kicker lists here. Just like all other Kicker amplifiers, the ratings here are always exceeded, so you can be confidant that your system can have over 500 watts of genuine, clean power. The efficiency of the 2010 IX amplifier keeps this amplifier running cool all day long with little strain on factory electrical systems. For those that desire to have a mid-end audio system in their car, this monoblock IX amplifier is perfect for the installation. The small footprint of this amplifier makes installation easy because it can fit just about anywhere you want to put it. Matched perfectly with the Kicker CompVX subwoofers or the CompVR subs, the Kicker IX500.1 is an incredible Class D monoblock amplifier with high power output.

Great Amp!

The following review is for 11IX500.1, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

This amp is great! Ran several kicker amps in the past but this by far my favorite. Small footprint and clean install. Plenty of power for my XQW 10". Highly recommend for a single sub install.

Great amp. Keeps cool

The following review is for 11IX500.1, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

I have this amp running two Kicker Solobaric L7 8". I drives them extremely hard. I have the amp mounted in the trunk, between the outer sheet metal of the car and an inner piece of sheet metal. It is mounted on a custom metal bracket completely behind the finished carpet part of the trunk, with absolutely no airflow. As a test, I played my music much louder than I would normally listen for over an hour. I can remove a small plastic plug in the trunk and feel the amp with my finger. To my surprise, it was completely cool to the touch. No heat generated at all. I like the built in crossover and the ease of using it with either high or low level inputs. You will either need to purchase or build an adapter of you are going to use the speaker level inputs. The only complaint I have with the amp is the remote. It is quite large and wide, making it almost impossible to disassemble and custom mount in your dash. The Kicker CX amplifiers have a remote half the size that is easily taken apart and mounted in a knockout panel on the dash. Overall, I love this amp and would recommend it. Just be sure you are ok mounting the remote under the dash in the supplied housing.

Well Worth the Money

The following review is for 11IX500.1, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

I've owned this amp for 6-months and would recommend it to anyone who is looking for straight raw clean power. No matter how long I run the amp it never gets hot. I am pushing 1-15" Kicker CVR sub in a vented competition style box with a 5-farad capacitor to pull juice off of when I'm pouring on the bass heavy. It hits so hard it makes my vision blur when riding around town. I love feeling the bass beating in my captain's chairs up front too! Definitely one of the clearest sounding sub amps I've ever heard! My next upgrade will be the Kicker IX1000.1

Super Nice clean Kicker

Got this amp on a trade in from my old kicker amp that over heated. Amp pushes my L7 12inch in my ported box with ease.

Great amp

I love this amp. Lots of power in this little thing. Have it powering a shallow mount kicker 10 and I can't believe the sound. Real nice.

Nice :Small Amp

Just installed this amp, powering a 350W RMS Kappa 10 sub in a sealed box. Nice amp, makes the sub really sing, good consistent power, comes with the remote bass boost which is nice. The small footprint was key for me, had a very small spot under a rear seat & it fit. Birthsheet was a little underwhelming at 506 W but initial performance has been very good.

Powerful

I hooked this amp up to a Kicker 12" Solo Classic Solo Baric subwoofer. Only turned up 50-60 percent and it rocked the speaker !!! Great!!!

Great, Small Footprint Amp

This amp has been great in my '99 Ford Taurus. I'm running two 10" Kickers with it and they hit clean and deep. I've never had the amp overheat and love how small it is. I would recommend this amp to everyone.
