1x Kicker 51HS12 Hideaway Compact Powered Subwoofer, 12-Inch (51HS12)
51HS12 – Hideaway™ HS12 Compact Powered 12" Subwoofer (230W RMS)
The Hideaway HS12 is a compact powered 12-inch subwoofer that delivers surprising low frequency impact in a tough, all-aluminum frame. Designed to fit under the seat, it combines an integrated amplifier with flexible input compatibility and onboard tuning controls for easy system upgrades.
Overview
Big Bass Impact in a Compact Powered Package
The HS12 delivers low-frequency output from a robust 12-inch powered enclosure engineered for tight installs. Its all-aluminum frame is built for durability, while the integrated amplifier and onboard controls make it easy to dial in clean, controlled bass.
- Compact powered 12" subwoofer enclosure designed to fit under the seat.
- 230 watts RMS amplifier power for strong low-frequency impact.
- Frequency response rated at 25–120 Hz.
The HS12 is designed to provide more power and a bigger impact than the 10-inch or 8-inch versions, while still fitting under the seat.

1x Kicker 47KEYLOC Key Series Smart Powered Line-Out Converter (47KEYLOC)
Kicker 47KEYLOC Key Series Smart Powered Line-Out Converter
This revolutionary line output converter automatically detects the frequency range of your speaker leads, and a whole lot more!
FIND THE FREQUENCY - News flash: factory audio systems don’t always deliver a full-range signal on every speaker wire. That makes it tough to hook up an aftermarket amp and get the sound you wanted – until now.
Attach the speaker wire to the KEYLOC, play a free test tone (below) and read the LEDs. You’ll instantly know if Hi, Mid or Lo is coming from a particular pair of speaker wires. No oscilloscope or RTA needed!
IT’S FIT - Using KICKER’s FIT 2+™ technology, the KEYLOC has the most versatile input sensitivity in the car-audio aftermarket. Ranging from 125 mV – 10V (Lo) or 1V to 40V (Hi), the KEYLOC is prepared to work with nearly every vehicle on the road today.
OPTIONAL ALL-PASS - The KEYLOC allows you to keep or defeat factory time delay, or the all-pass filter built into many modern vehicles. By defeating this filter, the KEYLOC instantly counteracts the either of these factory effects, allowing you to tune for one-seat audio or maintain the factory imaging.
1x Kicker 46KISL K-Series Interconnect, Speaker Wire To RCA Adapter (46KISL)
Kicker 46KISL 2 Channel Speaker Wire to RCA Converter.
K Series Interconnects feature split-pin RCAs with silver-tinned, OFC wire for superior bass response and signal clarity. The K-Grip dual-mold connectors offer sure grip and ergonomic shape for slip-free installation, and a union that’s ultra-slim for snag-free cable routing in tight places.
KISL 2-ch speaker-to-RCA converter, no LOC
KISL features 16ga speaker wire-to-RCAs and includes Female to Female adapters.
Don’t have an aftermarket radio? KICKER amplifiers accept a wide range of factory speaker signal. Use the KISL to easily connect factory speaker wires right to your amplifier. No line out converter needed!
