Re: amp blowing fuses
I dont know for sure but I think most amps have 30amp fuses in them. At least every one that i've ever had did.1998 Camaro V6 \"Black Mamba\"<br />Y87<br />Whisper Lid w/ K&N filter<br />Flowmaster American Thunder<br />Numerous appearance mods.<br /> <a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2154172\" target=\"_blank\">Car Domain</a> -
Re: amp blowing fuses
could be that for 800 i would have at LEAST 20 if your not bridgeing if you are should be like 30 but other then that. it could be the ohm your running on like if your subs made for 1 and amp is for 2 etc...\"its been long over due\"Comment

Re: amp blowing fuses
Can you give us the model number of your Profile Amp? Also, how many subs are you driving and how do you have them wired? You can't just guess and put any size amp fuse in the amp.2006 TiburonComment

Re: amp blowing fuses
Exactly. DO NOT just continue to up the fuse size. A fuse is there for a reason. If you continue to replace it with larger sizes, you run the risk of causing a meltdown.Originally posted by nda0602v6Comment

Re: amp blowing fuses
Not a good idea. The amp may overheat because it might not be able to handle currents up to 30amps. Figure out whats wrong with the amp, don't cause a bigger problem.<b><i>Don\'t Ever Judge Me</i></b><br /><a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/id/earnhardt132000\" target=\"_blank\">\'96 Firebird Y87 3.8L V6 5spd</a><br />--No mods as of yet, shoot me some ideas if ya want.<br />178,000 miles and countingComment
