1,000-Wa tt THX Ultra2 Certified Subwoofer Amplifier
®
KA-1000-THX
Designed exclusively for use with Klipsch
KW-120-THX subwoofers, the KA-1000-THX
is a THX Ultra2 certified monoblock power
amplifier capable of 500 watts continuous
output into 8 ohms (a single KW-120-THX
subwoofer, for example) or 1,000 watts
continuous into 4 ohms (two parallelconnected KW-120-THXs). It incorporates
front-panel controls for level, crossover
frequency, phase, and room-gain compensation.
The crossover can be bypassed to feed the
amplifier directly from the subwoofer output
of an A/V preamplifier, processor, or receiver.
Line-level input and output connections are via
gold-plated left/right RCA jacks. The amplifier
has two parallel-wired speaker outputs with
™
NL2 SpeakOn
jacks for correct, secure cable
connections.
Convenience features include a selectable
signal-sensing auto-on/off circuit, a front-panel
main power switch and LED status indicators
for crossover and level control operation.
Matching the look of Aragon home-theater
components, the KA
-1000-THX has a blackanodized, grained-aluminum front panel with
aluminum control knobs. P
remium electronic
components are used throughout for sonic
purity and reliability.

TURES
FEA
Dynamic power indicates the actual power this amplifier will deliver to the
*
woofer under normal operating conditions. While the FTC power rating
es power available on a continuous, long-term basis, subwoofers do
indicat
y on that type of power. Instead, the amplifier is called upon to
el
t r
no
deliver large, short-term peaks of power to be able to support the wide
dynamics required by today’s digital music and movie formats. In addition
to the required FTC power rating, we’ve provided the dynamic power
ating as a be
r
tter indication of the product’s true performance.
