Kicker Audio: Quality, Performance, and Passion
(Sonic at Stillwater Designs HQ)



The KQ5 slices the spectrum into five bands with variable center frequencies. Cut/boost is 12dB, and output is a strong 7 volts. Two sets of inputs allow line switching, and front/rear outputs have fader control. There's even a knob that lets you control bass boost on most KICKER amps right from your dash.

solid eq

This is an awesome piece to add to your system. I currently have this unit installed. The pros, this thing has a high 7volt rms signal outputs, the ability to adjust 5 frequency within the kickers supplied ranges, 12db cut/boost on knobs associated with the 5 bands, has a built in bass knob, line switching feature, clipping indicators and green & amber change setting. The cons, only cons are stupid really and are senseless to list. Overall the kq5 is an awesome piece to add and just the look of this in your dash screams kicker performance.

Great EQ

This little EQ offers alot of control for the many types of music I listen to. just a small turn of one of the knobs and the guitars really jump out. You wont go wrong with this EQ.
