Unless you’re serious about your car stereo – really serious – then don’t read any further.

Simply put, it’s like nothing that’s ever been seen before in mobile audio. KICKER engineers have spent years in the electronics lab working to create the ultimate competition piece. What they emerged with was the future in high-end amplification, an undeniable breakthrough in car-audio technology that will leave the mobile electronics industry in awe.

Introducing the WX10000.1, KICKER’s ultimate power play in car audio.

Code name Warhorse, the WX10000.1 Signal-Modulated Subwoofer Amplifier is a massive marvel – more than 10,000* true watts surging to dual-voice-coil subwoofers with the highest power-handling capabilities. Recommended for use with KICKER SoloX Subwoofers, the Warhorse easily summons enough juice to be dangerous, so a complete understanding of the owner’s manual is vital prior to installation.

It’s big, stepping in at just short of a yard long, a foot-and-a-half wide, and weighing nearly 67 pounds. It’s bad, producing more than 10,000 watts while requiring the services of eight 12-volt batteries and two 200-ampere alternators. And it’s more than any one can handle (actually, KICKER recommends that two installers grab drills and mount this monster.).

Without doubt, the Warhorse has the size and power, but it also houses a secret under its enormous shroud. The WX10000.1 revolutionizes traditional amplification with its signal-modulated, ultra-high-efficiency design. It amplifies audio signal directly to DVC subwoofers from the patent-pending, signal-modulated power supply, rather than relying on help from amplification circuits found in traditional Class D or Class A/B designs. This results in efficiency ratings unheard of in mobile audio – 90-percent efficiency at a 2-ohm load and 93-percent efficiency at a 4-ohm load at full power!

Warhorse’s features are groundbreaking. Four custom planar transformers that handle 5,000 watts each and help boost efficiency, the latest Texas Instruments® industrial-grade DSP for controlling signal processing and protection circuitry, heavy-duty, solid-copper bus bars for maximizing current capabilities, 50-ampere Anderson™ speaker connectors that provide specific safeguards against extremely high voltage signal… nothing was overlooked in the four-year design process.

Add to that the seemingly regular signal-processing features found in all amplifiers, only they’re not so regular on the Warhorse. A 24dB/octave, 50-200Hz low-pass crossover, a 24dB/octave, 20-60Hz high-pass subsonic crossover, a KICKEQ™ bass boost 0-18dB at 40Hz, input gain control, remote bass level control, adjustable limiter control… KICKER’s managed to cover a lot of ground. But then again, the Warhorse physically provides a lot of ground to cover.

Available separately is the Warhorse Control Module, which allows the user to access the full range of operational possibilities available on the Warhorse Amplifier, and all from a remote location.

The WX amplifier outputs dangerous voltage levels from the voice coil (speaker) outputs.

Never contact the voice coil outputs, connect speakers, or speaker wires if the amplifier is turned on. Turning the amplifier on without loading both voice coil outputs or connecting the speaker(s) will increase the risk of electrical shock and could damage the amplifier.

Due to continual developement, product, and specifications are subject to change without notice. Stillwater Designs and it's agents are not responsible for typographical errors.
