to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential instal-
lation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used
in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there
is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AND EXPLANATION OF SYMBOLS
CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE THE AMPLIFIER
COVER. NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE. REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED PERSONNEL.
1. Read these instructions.
2. Keep these instructions.
3. Heed all warnings.
4. Follow all instructions.
5. WARNING: To prevent fire or electric shock, do not expose this equipment to rain or moisture. Do not use this
apparatus near water.
6. Clean only with a dry cloth.
7. Allow a minimum of 6" (152 mm) clearance behind cabinet for convection cooling. Keep anything that might
restrict airflow from the rear of the enclosure (i.e. draperies, fabric, etc.). Do not block any ventilation opening. This
product contains an internal power amplifier that produces heat.
8. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including ampli-
fiers) that produce heat.
9. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding-type plug on the three-pronged “Edison” style power cable. The
grounding plug has two blades and a grounding prong. The third prong is provided for your safety. If the provided plug
does not fit your outlet, consult an electrician for the replacement of the obsolete outlet. Do not cut off the grounding
plug or use an adapter that breaks the grounding circuit. This apparatus must be properly grounded for your safety.
10. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched, particularly plugs, convenience receptacles, and the
point where they exit from the apparatus.
11. The appliance coupler is the AC mains disconnect and should remain readily operable after installation.
12. Use only attachments/accessories specified by Blastking, USA.
13. Use only with hardware, brackets, and components sold with the apparatus or by Blastking, USA.
14. Unplug the apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
15. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged
in any way, such as power supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the
apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally or has been dropped.
16. Before placing, installing, rigging or suspending any loudspeaker product, inspect all hardware, suspension,
cabinets, transducers, brackets and associated equipment for damage. Any missing, corroded, deformed, or non-load
rated component could significantly reduce the strength of the installation and should be immediately corrected. Use
only hardware which is rated for the loading conditions of the installation and any possible short-term unexpected
overloading. Never exceed the rating of the hardware or equipment.
17. Consult a licensed, professional engineer when any doubt or questions arise regarding a physical equipment
installation.
18. The appliance shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing and no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall
be placed on the apparatus.
The lightning flash with the arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the
user to the presence of uninsulated “dangerous” voltage within the product’s enclosure that may be
of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of shock to humans.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of
important operation and maintenance (servicing) instructions in this manual.
WARNING!

Introduction
The BlastKing KXL line array and ground stacked subwoofers allow the user a wide range of applications.
From permanent installations to rentals, KXL has it all.
The KXL is designed for up to six of the KXL10A and one of the KXL15AS or KXL18AS, per side. The series is available
in both active and passive configurations. For the venue that needs that extra BASS, recommended is the KXL218AS and
KXL318AS ground stacked dual and triple 18” subwoofers!
Installation
Before placing, installing, rigging, or suspending any speaker product, inspect all hardware, suspension, cabinets,
transducers, brackets and associated equipment for damage.
Any missing, corroded, deformed, or non-load rated component could significantly reduce the strength of the installation or
placement. Any such condition severely reduces the safety of the installation and should be immediately corrected. Use only
hardware which is rated for the loading conditions of the installation and any possible short-term,unexpected overloading.
Never exceed the rating of the hardware or equipment. Consult a licensed, professional engineer regarding physical
equipment installation. Ensure that all local, state and national regulations regarding the safety and operation of loudspeakers
and related equipment are understood and adhered to.
Maintenance
These speakers are high quality units made especially according to the BLASTKING USA’s specification.
Overpowering the unit or overheating it because of improper system arrangement could harm the unit.
For longest possible operating life, and to avoid warranty issues, it is recommended that there is at least a few inches of
space around an active speaker.
Please avoid exposing the speaker to moisture or extreme cold conditions. Do not put the speaker anywhere near water
sources as it can damage the unit or cause a short circuit.
Manufacturer takes no responsibility for improper repair, replacement, or any other services conducted by unqualified
technicians.

HFC2: Use for two topside sat speakers
HFC1: Use for two middle sat spakers.
Flat line source: Use for two underside sat spakers.
Flat point source: Use for point sound source, as to use one speaker individually.
2. Low cut: This unit have a high-slope LOW CUT filter for eliminating unwanted, press the button when match a sub
speaker.
3. Sensitivity: Adjust the sensitivity 0 dB to 10 dB.
4. Line Input: A XLR line input. It is not compatible with microphone level input and it is not suitable for direct connection
with a microphone. Use this to pass the signal if only one channel signal.
5. Line Out: Used for signal connection among other amplified speakers, the signal comes from input.
6. Power indicator: Illuminates when the unit is connection to the main supplys and switched on.
7. Signal indicator: Illuminates to indicate signal present at the input.
8. Protect Indicator: This illuminates if a fault condition occurs, such as overheating. The amplifier will shut down to
prevent further damage. Normal operation will resume once the fault condition has been rectified.
9. Limiter indicator: Illuminated just before the amplifier begins to clip and distort. Adjust the level control and signal level
from your source so this illuminates only briefly on peaks in the music. Using the system with this on all or much of the
time will result in poor sound quality and damage the speakers and electronics.
10. USB data: Use USB port to connect other devices to adjust parameters.
