Hi-pass, Frequency, Slope – Kicker 08WXRC User Manual
Page 8: Phase, 0 degree, 180 degree, Mute, Mute on, Mute off, Limiter
The KICKER WXRC monitors and prevents any low pass crossover point
from being set any closer than 1/3 octave from the high pass crossover
point. If you cannot set the low pass crossover where you want then
check the ISIS display and see if the
LPF
is lit and the
HPF
indicator is
flashing. If it is then you need to go to the HI-PASS menu and lower the
high pass crossover point.
This is done as a safety precaution to prevent a notch filter condition.

LIMITER

U - Here you can adjust the limiter on the WX amplifier.
While in the LIMITER ADJ Menu, use the
arrow to increase the WX amplifier’s
RMS output in a range from 0 dB to -10 dB. This controls the power consumption
of the amplifier to operate within the limitations of your vehicle’s charging system.
Using the
arrow will reduce the RMS output and also the power
consumption of the amplifier.
Press the
key to save your setting and return to the AMP ADJ menu.
You can now choose another function to adjust.
NOTE: The limiter is a very special feature of the Warhorse amplifier. It is included to make your high
powered stereo system more enjoyable. The expression “it takes power to make power” has never
been truer than it is with our 10,000 Watt masterpiece. If you don’t have enough output capacity from
your alternators to maintain full power from your Warhorse the battery bank will drop in voltage. If your
Warhorse doesn’t get enough power then it shuts off showing the <Volt LED. This is very frustrating. To
avoid this situation you can turn up the Limiter. Apply a higher setting to the Limiter until the Warhorse
can play without going into low voltage protection.
Decreasing the RMS output with the limiter does cut down on power consumption, but it allows
continuous use. The only way to get more power out of the Warhorse is to supply more charging
system power. This may involve a larger alternator or adding a second alternator. More battery capacity
will work for short term usage, but the actual power ultimately comes from the alternator(s).
GAIN RANGE
MENU
- Here you can select the WX Series amplifiers’
UltraMatch™ digital input gain range. The UltraMatch™ gain structure features
four selectable Gain Ranges (1-2-5-10 volt).
In “Gear-Head” terms, the Gain Range and Gain adjustments can be compared to the gear box and
gas pedal of a race car. The Gain Range represents what gear you’re in and the Gain represents
stepping on the gas. In this menu you are adjusting the gear box. THE GAIN RANGE OF YOUR
AMPLIFIER NEEDS TO BE CORRECTLY ADJUSTED TO PROVIDE MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE!
