INSTALLATION AND WIRING

IMPORTANT: Disconnect the vehicle’s negative (–) battery terminal before beginning the installation.
Mounting the Amplifier

• Wear protective eyewear when using tools.
• Choose a safe mounting location. Check clearances on both sides of the location. Be sure that screws will not puncture brake or fuel lines or wiring harnesses, and that wire routing will not interfere with vehicle operation. Use caution when drilling or cutting.
• When making electrical connections, make sure they are secure and properly insulated.
• Do not mount the amplifier with the heat sink facing downward, as this interferes with cooling.
• Using the amplifier as a template, mark the locations of the holes on the mounting surface.
• Drill pilot holes in the mounting surface.
• Attach the amplifier to the mounting surface with sheet metal screws.

Wiring the Amplifier
Kappa Perfect amplifiers feature wire plugs that allow you to make all connections using optional mating connectors (sold separately). You can also remove the plugs to make direct wiring connections.
Power and Ground Connections Using an Optional Mating Connector

• First, prepare the mating connector (sold separately) in the vehicle. Strip a short length of the jacket from the power, ground, and remote turn-on wires from the vehicle. Crimp the terminals onto the ends of each wire. Insert each wire into the appropriate pin location in the mating connector housing (see chart below). Push firmly to secure the wires in the housing, then snap the back panel of the housing into place.
• When all connections are made, plug the connector from the amplifier into the mating connector.

Power and Ground Connections – Direct Hardwire

• Use wire cutters to remove the connector from the amplifier wiring harness. Then, strip a short length of the jacket from each wire.
• Power: Connect the +12V power wire to the positive terminal of the vehicle’s battery. Make sure the fuse and fuse holder are within 18″ (457mm) of the battery.
• Ground: Connect the GND wire to the negative terminal of the vehicle’s battery, or to the vehicle’s chassis near the battery with a screw. NOTE: If possible, remove any paint from the chassis for best contact. It’s recommended to use a star washer below the ring connector for a secure connection.
• Remote: Connect the remote turn-on wire to the “Remote Out” lead of the source unit, if using low-level signal inputs with an aftermarket stereo. NOTE: If you’re using high-level signal inputs (your vehicle’s speaker wires), the Kappa Perfect amplifier’s 12-volt DC offset feature will turn the amplifier on when it senses audio signal. In this case, you will not have to connect the remote turn-on wire and can tape or cap it off to prevent the introduction of noise.

Power/Protect indicators
The power light will illuminate in green when the amplifier is getting power and playing. The light will illuminate in red if the amp enters protect mode in the event of conditions such as over/under voltage, short circuit, amplifier output circuit failure, or excessive heat.
Line-level Signal Input

• If your source unit offers preamp outputs, connect to the amplifier’s L and R preamp inputs using RCA patch cables.

Speaker-level Signal Input

Speaker-level Input with Optional Mating Connectors

• If your audio system’s source unit does not have line-level outputs, connect the speaker-level input wires from the amplifier to the front and/or the rear speaker output wires of your source unit.
• If using the amplifier wiring plugs, first, prepare the mating connector (sold separately) in the vehicle. Strip a short length of the jacket from the speaker wires coming from the source unit in the vehicle. Crimp the terminals onto the ends of each wire. Insert each wire into the appropriate pin location in the mating connector housing (see chart below). Push firmly to secure the wires in the housing.
• When all connections are made, plug the amplifier connector into the mating connector.Mating power wire terminals part number: Molex 039000039

Speaker-level Input – Direct Connection

• Use wire cutters to remove the connector from the amplifier wiring harness. Then, strip a short length of the jacket from each wire.
• Splice the speaker-level input wires for the amplifier to the speaker wires coming from the source unit in the vehicle. Use solder, butt connectors, or your preferred splicing method. The 12-volt DC offset feature will turn the amplifier on when it senses signal.

INPUT LEVEL SELECTION

If you’re sending signal to the amplifier using low-level outputs from your source unit, slide the input level selector to “LO.” If using high-level outputs from your source unit, slide the selector to Speaker Output Connections
Speaker Output with Optional Mating Connectors

• If using the amplifier wiring plugs, first, prepare the mating connector (sold separately) in the vehicle. Strip a short length of the jacket from the speaker wires going to the speakers in the vehicle. Crimp the terminals onto the ends of each wire. Insert each wire into the appropriate pin location in the mating connector housing (see chart below). Push firmly to secure the wires in the housing
• When all connections are made, plug the amplifier connector into the mating connector.Mating power wire terminals part number: Molex 039000077 (KP5004) or 039000039 (KP3002)

  NOTE: To prevent electrical interference or short-circuiting, terminate the unused speaker leads with a wire cap or electrical tape.

SETTING THE SOUND

Setting the input level
To match your amplifier’s input sensitivity (gain) to your source unit’s output level, we recommend the following procedure:

• Turn the input level control counterclockwise to MIN (minimum).
• Play a dynamic music track through your source unit. Turn the source unit’s volume control to the 3/4 position.
• Turn the input level control dial clockwise towards MAX until you hear distortion in the music (it’s no longer clear), then turn it counterclockwise until the music sounds clear again. Your input sensitivity is now set.

Crossover filters
You can adjust your Kappa Perfect amplifier’s filters to suit your listening preferences and speaker configuration.
The KP5004 lets you select either no filter (OFF) for a full-range signal, or a high-pass filter (HPF) for your front channels if you’re powering a subwoofer with the rear channels. Slide the switch to choose your desired crossover point.
For the rear channels, you can select between no filter (OFF); a high-pass filter (HPF) if you’re powering a subwoofer independently, or a low-pass filter (LPF) if you’re using the rear channels to power a subwoofer in bridged mode. Slide the REAR – HZ switch to choose your desired crossover point.

The KP3002 lets you slide the X-OVER switch to select no filter (OFF) for a full-range signal; a high-pass filter (HPF) if you’re powering speakers and have an independently powered subwoofer in your system; or a low-pass filter (LPF) if you’re powering a subwoofer in bridged mode. Slide the FREQ. switch to choose your desired crossover point.

The KP3002 also includes a bass boost (BOOST) switch for a +6dB or +12dB boost at 45 Hz.
