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.

Full Range Class D mean High Output

The four-channel IX amplifier is a one of a kind. Offering a full range of amplified frequencies across four audio channels. With the installation of this single amplifier, a vehicle can have all four speakers powered with Kicker power. For the Kicker IX500.4 amplifier that means 75 Watts x 4 Channels at 4 ohms, and an impressive 125 Watts x 4 Channels at 2 ohms! No matter what type of after market speakers are installed, the IX amp will provide plenty of clean power. Since the amplifier is bridgeable, it can be configured in 4 channels, 3 channels, or 2 channels. It also features an advanced 12 dB/octave electronic crossover for the finer acoustic tuning. Following Kicker's tradition of high output, each amp exceeds the rated power. That means the 500 Watts RMS is actually more than that. Each amplifier is tested, rated, and given a "birth sheet" in the Kicker factory that listed the tested power. Every amp exceeds the rated power. That just one more reason to choose Kicker!

Kicker FIT Fail Safe Integration Technology

Kicker Fail Safe Technology (FIT):

Kicker has manufactured a new Fail-Safe Integration (FIT) technology into all of their amplifiers. The FIT technology uses isolated differential inputs in order to reject noise or electrical interferences, caused by engines, alternators or any other audio or video component throughout your vehicle. The differential inputs will use a muting circuit that will block out any additional noise that may stream down the line. The FIT technology will help created the cleanest and purest sound possible for any audio system. The Kicker FIT technology is setting the standard for high quality sound.

Go with this. Seriously.

By far the best, most accurate amp you can get for this price. Very powerful with 75 watts RMS @ 4 OHMs. FAIL safe integration is amazing for those who have OEM radios. Just get this amp. Reviews can only help you out so much. Try this out so you can see why this amp has a perfect 5 star rating.

2011 Toyota Tacoma Access Cab, what a great difference vs Factory

After installing and not having to brake the bank; the sound quality vs the cost is a great upgrade and recommend to all. I have Kicker IX500.4 amp pushing a set of Kicker KS693 6"x9" 3-way, Kicker KS6.2 6 1/2" 2-way with tweeters, and a Pioneer receiver Avic X950BH.

Best customer service, best pricing, everything you need to start to finish.

This amp has so much to give!

This is the perfect 4 channel amp for anybody who has limited space for installation. I have a 2011 Nissan Versa with navigation system (the best audio option you can get in the Versa), and my system was lacking on all ends. After consulting the web and calling the guys at Sonic, I finally settled with the 11IX500.4. This amp fits perfectly under the driver seat (even with more room to spare for my Kappa component crossovers). I loved that this amp has the ability to receive high level inputs and the ability to sense a DC offset in the speaker inputs for turn on. Because of this, I have the remote wired over to my HS8 for its turn on.

I have this IX500.4 to run Kappa component and 3-way speakers. Also, I have the Kicker HS8 under my passenger seat for my sub. This is what the Nissan Versa needed, a stock look that performs beautify.

The Sonic rep that I spoke to explained everything perfectly. Sonic is the place to buy car audio!

Lives up to its name

Wow! What a fantastic product! This amp carries a punch with 560 Certified amps. I am running Alpine SPS610C component fronts and SPE6000 rears. It has a sweet sound and fits nicely under passenger seat in the air conditioning.

This is one of the better amps out there.

I had the ZX Kicker and I upgraded for the IX and mine is about 600 watts. I have it running my 6 1/2 Polks with MB Quarts two inch tweeters. I love that the IX has a lot the same features as the ZX, like the fader button. That lets you run on set of rca cables to run all four channels. It's a good amp and its loud too.
