It's grounded. Keep putting bigger fuses in there and you'll start a fire. Could be internal to the amp. I can't really understand what you're trying to say.

That right there seems to be your problem. What kind of amp is it?

What fuse is blowing, "i check and the #25 fuse pop" does not say much, where is the fuse that blows? 94

Well that did not answer my question, "what fuse is blowing?" but to answer yours, something rattling around inside an amp is definitely a problem, open the amp up and see what it is. 94

all three of these homies right here that just replied IMO really know whats up, but you have to help them help you, by giving more deatail to whats really going on. like fcm said, what fuse is popping where is located whats the amperage. etc...

but in re: to your post. this may or may not help, there was an instance in a friends car, where one of his alpine 12" subs was causing the inline fuse in the 8g power wire from the battery to short, got rid of the sub and it was fine. Im sure i could've used a VOM to test the speaker, but we just did trial and error.

...details really help GL

Then I saw the several replies and "additional information" from the OP and was like
