Features
Automatic Turn-On Selection: The KEY series
offers two different automatic turn-on modes that can
be selected on the end panel; +12V and DC Offset.
Using the DC Offset mode causes the REM wire to
have +12V out for turning on additional amplifiers.
• Remote Turn-On: Set the switch to +12V to use the
remote turn-on lead from your source unit. Run 18 gauge
wire from the Remote Turn-On Lead on your source unit
to the blue REM wire on KEY amplifier's wiring harness.
This is the preferred automatic turn-on method.
• If 12V remote turn-on is not available, DC Offset turn-
on can be used if speaker-level audio inputs are being
used. The DC offset mode detects a 3V DC offset on the
speaker wires when the source unit has been turned on.
RADIO DETECT: The RCA inputs on KICKER KEY
amplifiers are capable of receiving either Hi or Low-
level signals from your source unit. If you are using
Hi-Level inputs, but your source unit cannot detect
an audio system present or refuses to play audio
out of one or more speakers, you may need to set
Radio Detect to ON. This will activate a load resistor
at the amplifier's inputs and tell the source unit there
