Built to Power Your Door Speakers
The CXA360.4 is designed around a simple concept:
Give your vehicle's full-range speakers more clean power.
Factory radios are often limited in the amount of power they can provide to the vehicle's speakers.
Adding a dedicated 4-channel amplifier allows your speakers to receive significantly more power, which can improve overall system output, dynamics and headroom.
The CXA360.4 is especially well suited for:
- Front door speaker upgrades
- Rear door speaker upgrades
- Component speaker systems
- Coaxial speaker systems
- Factory-radio upgrades
- Aftermarket head-unit systems
- Truck and SUV audio upgrades
- Daily-driver sound systems
- Two-channel bridged speaker applications
90 Watts x 4 at 2 Ohms
The CXA360.4 delivers:
2 Ohms Stereo
90W RMS x 4
This is the amplifier's highest standard 4-channel output rating.
That makes it an excellent match for many aftermarket speakers rated in the 75–100W RMS range.
65 Watts x 4 at 4 Ohms
When connected to standard 4-ohm speakers, the CXA360.4 delivers:
65W RMS x 4
This makes it an excellent option for powering conventional 4-ohm aftermarket door speakers while maintaining a clean, controlled power source.
180 Watts x 2 Bridged
The CXA360.4 can also be configured in bridged mode to produce:
180W RMS x 2 at 4 Ohms
This opens up another installation possibility.
Instead of using all four channels independently, you can bridge the amplifier's channels to provide substantially more power to two compatible 4-ohm speakers.
This can be useful for specialized system configurations or when additional power is desired for a pair of speakers.
Always verify that the speaker impedance is compatible with the amplifier when using bridged operation.
Class A/B Power
Unlike KICKER's CX mono subwoofer amplifiers, which use Class-D technology, the CXA360.4 uses a Class A/B full-range amplifier design.
Class A/B amplification has long been popular in full-range speaker applications because of its combination of reliable power delivery and broad frequency response.
The CXA360.4 covers:
10Hz–20kHz
making it designed for full-range music reproduction rather than subwoofer-only operation.

Variable High-Pass and Low-Pass Crossovers
The CXA360.4 features selectable:
HIGH-PASS
LOW-PASS
OFF
with an adjustable frequency range of:
50Hz–200Hz
and a 12dB/octave slope.
This gives you the ability to tailor each amplifier section to the speakers being powered.
High-Pass Example
When powering door speakers, a high-pass filter can be used to reduce extremely low frequencies that the door speakers may not reproduce efficiently.
Low-Pass Example
When configuring an amplifier section for a specialized midbass or other low-frequency application, the low-pass setting can restrict the upper frequency range.
Proper crossover selection depends on the speakers, enclosure, vehicle and overall system design.
KickEQ™ Bass Boost
The CXA360.4 includes KICKER's KickEQ™ variable bass boost.
Adjustment range:
0–6dB @ 40Hz
This gives the installer additional control over low-frequency response.
For door-speaker applications, we recommend using bass boost conservatively.
The goal should be to achieve clean, balanced output rather than simply adding as much low-frequency boost as possible.
Clean, Full-Range Response
The CXA360.4 is designed for full-range audio reproduction with a frequency response of:
10Hz–20kHz
and a specified signal-to-noise ratio of:
95dB
That makes it appropriate for powering the main speakers in a complete vehicle audio system.
Compact Installation
The CXA360.4 maintains a compact chassis while providing four channels of amplification.
KICKER lists the overall dimensions at approximately:
12-1/2" L × 6-3/4" W × 2-3/8" H
That makes it practical for installations where amplifier space is limited.
Potential mounting locations include:
- Under seats
- Behind rear seats
- Cargo areas
- Trunk side panels
- Custom amp racks
- Vehicle storage compartments
Always verify available space and ventilation before installation.
Vertical Mounting Hardware Included
The CXA360.4 includes hardware that allows the amplifier to be mounted vertically.
This gives installers another option when traditional horizontal mounting isn't ideal.
KICKER specifically designed the CX-Series chassis to accommodate space-saving vertical mounting.
