STILLWATER, USA – KICKER® introduces the long-awaited LX-Series Power Amplifiers, anticipated as the perfect marriage of SQL design and high-power output, utilizing feedback from the industry to deliver the most requested features while maintaining the highest performance possible. LX-Series Premium Amplifiers are currently available for purchase at Authorized KICKER Dealers in-store and online. Introduced to the world on the KICKER UnMASKED! Live™ streamed show, LX Premium Amps will retail from $449.99-$899.99 and will also be available for purchase online at www.kicker.com.
Designed in-house from the ground up at KICKER World Headquarters in Stillwater, Okla., the LX-Series is made up of seven flexible models: four monoblock amplifiers ranging from 850W to 3000W, a 4-channel full-range stereo amplifier, and a 5-channel amplifier and 7-channel amplifier each with its own subwoofer section. All come with KICKER’s FIT+™ technology, accepting low- and high-level signals up to 40V, with full differential inputs created to eliminate noise for crystal-clear sound. All subwoofer channels are 1-Ohm stable and ship with a feature-laden remote bass control (LXRC). All multi-channel amplifiers are bridgeable and come with a hard-wired, deep-diving LX Control Center (LXCC). All amplifiers feature a choice of turn-on modes and comprehensive protections for thermal, circuit, voltage stability, ensuring reliable performance.
All three multi-channel models feature the encompassing LXCC for fine-tuning and diagnostic display. Users can dial in or view DSP-controlled options like gain trim, LED output clip indication, selectable crossover type, slopes, and variable frequency ranges, and KickEQ+™ parametric bass boost on those full-range amps with sub sections. It also includes left-channel time delay on stereo channels, and phase control on sub channels.
The six amps with mono channels come with the LXRC, providing dynamic fingertip dash direction of bass level. It features SHOCwave2.0™ (Sub-Harmonic Octave Creation), KICKER’s 2nd-gen digital bass restoration algorithm that recovers lost, low-bass frequencies vital to your music selections. It also displays battery voltage in a fuel-gauge-style readout, control of its RGB LED brightness, and output clipping indication.
