The KICKER KM coaxial speakers are specifi cally designed for mounting in free-air applications. The
speakers do not require a sealed enclosure for optimum performance. It is important to isolate the sound
coming off the front of the driver from the sound radiating from the back of the driver. This isolation is
usually accomplished by using the driver in a factory speaker location, or in a location with a semi-isolated
rear chamber.

LOCATION
The sound produced by the KM coaxials is directional. Find the best location for stereophonic sound. If
necessary, add more KM coaxial speakers to the system to help distribute and balance the sound-stage.
After determining the best mounting locations, carefully check the areas where the mounting hardware will
be placed.
