IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read and follow all the instructions listed in this manual. Keep these instructions and heed all warnings. Follow all safety and procedural recommendations to prevent damage to yourself, your KICKER product, or your portable media device. The AMPHITHEATER should not be used near water or in an environment where exposure to liquids is possible. This includes but is not exclusive to areas where splashing, dripping, leaks, spills, and exposure to rain can occur. Liquid containers should not be placed on or near the AMPHITHEATER. The AMPHITHEATER should not be cleaned with liquid cleaners. Use only a dry cloth to clean the AMPHITHEATER. Only use the AMPHITHEATER in areas with adequate open ventilation allowing at least 4” of space on all sides of the AMPHITHEATER. Do not set the AMPHITHEATER on any surface or cover the AMPHITHEATER with any object that could impede the airflow to and from the AMPHITHEATER. The AMPHITHEATER should not be placed near any source of heat. The battery pack or batteries installed shall not be exposed to excessive heat. This includes but is not limited to stoves, radiators, heating elements, electronic heat sources, and areas where excessive solar heat can be generated. Do not place the AMPHITHEATER near any flame or place any flammable objects near the device. The power outlet used to provide power to the AMPHITHEATER should be accessible at all times. The power cord should be situated in a way that protects it from being pinched, walked on, tripped over, or accidentally pulled from the electrical outlet or the electrical input on the AMPHITHEATER. Where the MAIN plug or an appliance coupler is used as the disconnect device, the disconnect device shall remain readily operable. Do not run the cable through doorways or underneath objects that could damage the wire or tear the insulating material surrounding the wire. Only use the manufacturer-supplied power supply with the AMPHITHEATER. We recommend using a surge protector/power conditioner and unplugging the AMPHITHEATER during any electrical storms or situations that could cause voltage fluctuations in the electrical system
FAQS
They are basically the same speaker just a model number change
no but i dont think its really designed to be moved around, no handle but its real light. as long as u have somewhere to plug it in. This thing is a beast I love it
Typically I leave it on. If I know I’m not going to use it for a while (days)
I have both the Kicker 501 and this one, which is basically the same but wireless. The 501 has slightly more full sound because it doesn’t lose any sound quality from the wireless it seems. Don’t get me wrong
Not if you mean to plug it into a 240V outlet. It has a standard 120V plug, and is not wired to be installed into a car, either.
No the remote is for bass, sound volume, muting, going to next song like when using Spotify and synching with devices.
This unit DOES need to be plugged into the wall, it does not have a battery. Feel free to give us a call at 800-854-5821 if you have any other questions
I’m not sure what 3 you are referring to. I have the bluetooth version now. I used to have the one previous, that the iPod sat in like an ihome
No, no handle. Not really portable and actually it’s awkward for me to move around. other than that I really like it.
No , it requires 110-120v
No but I’ve never really had a problem with it. This speaker is a beast btw
Wireless Bluetooth, it still needs electricity. Yes, plugged into the wall.
