CROSSOVER CONFIGURATION
Before mounting and wiring the QS coaxial system, determine which configuration you will use for the
speakers and crossovers.
QS Crossover
Configurations
Conventional 2-way
Bi-amplified
The KICKER QS crossover can be configured as a conventional 2-way crossover by installing the
included INPUT jumper into the - MID + - TW + input terminals as shown below. In this configuration,
the amplified signal from your source unit or amplifier should be wired to the + and - terminals indicated on
the INPUT jumper.
The QS crossover can also be configured for bi-amp wiring by removing (or simply not installing) the
INPUT jumper. To use the bi-amp configuration, you must connect two amplified signals to each
crossover (you will need at least four amplifier channels).
QS crossover
ADVANTAGES
easy install | ideal when available
amplifier channels are limited
optimal sound quality; more efficient
usage of amplifier power
CONSIDERATIONS
audio fidelity not quite as high as
bi-amplified configuration
requires at least 4 amplifier
channels | slightly trickier install
INPUT jumper.
Install only for 2-way configurations;
do not install if bi-amping.
