KICKER 46CXARC Remote Bass Level Controller for CX Amps

The KICKER 46CXARC is a compact remote bass level controller that gives you dash‑side command over bass output on compatible KICKER CX, DX, and PX amplifiers.

Installed in minutes, the 46CXARC plugs into the REMOTE BASS jack on the end panel of CX‑series mono amplifiers and other compatible KICKER models, letting you fine‑tune subwoofer level without reaching the amp. It’s a clean, simple way to adjust low‑end response from the front seat so you can match bass to music, ride conditions, or passenger preference.

How does the 46CXARC let me control bass from the dash?

The controller communicates with the amplifier through the REMOTE BASS jack. Turn the rotary knob to increase or decrease the amp’s subwoofer output in real time, delivering a tactile control that’s faster than reprogramming settings at the amp itself.

• Direct plug‑in to REMOTE BASS jack—no complex wiring.
• Rotary knob provides smooth, precise level changes.
• Works with CX, DX, and PX amps that feature the remote bass input.

Will the 46CXARC fit my vehicle and stereo layout?

The controller’s compact footprint is designed for flexible dash or console mounting. Its small diameter and low profile mean it tucks into tight spaces, while the standard jack interface keeps installation tidy and reversible.

• Low‑profile control head for shallow mounting options.
• Minimal cabling visible after installation for a clean look.
• Suitable for dashboards, center consoles, or under‑dash panels.

Which KICKER amplifiers are compatible with the 46CXARC?

The 46CXARC is intended for KICKER amps equipped with a REMOTE BASS jack. While it’s most often paired with CX‑series mono amplifiers, it is also compatible with select DX and PX models that provide the same remote input feature.

• Directly compatible with KICKER CX‑series mono amplifiers.
• Works with DX and PX amps that include a REMOTE BASS connection.
• Check your amp end panel for the REMOTE BASS jack before purchasing.

What can I expect from performance and reliability?

Designed to KICKER’s accessory standards, the 46CXARC provides consistent level control without altering crossover or EQ settings. It’s a practical add‑on to tailor bass intensity during different listening scenarios while preserving the amp’s tuned settings.

• Doesn’t modify crossover points—only adjusts output level.
• Robust rotary mechanism for repeated daily use.
• Simple teardown-free removal if you want to revert to amp‑side control only.

Who is this for? If you run a KICKER CX, DX, or PX amplifier that has a REMOTE BASS jack and you want fast, on‑the‑fly control of subwoofer level from the driver’s seat, the 46CXARC gives you a compact, durable solution. It’s ideal for car audio enthusiasts who frequently switch music genres, ride with varying passenger loads, or want quick bass adjustments without accessing the amplifier or head unit settings.
