Amp fuse keeps blowing. What's wrong.

[45auto 10+ year member]

My man at Best Buy said that my amp might be damaged. Please tell me different.

I looked for shorts and didn't find any, I can't possibly think of whats wrong.

It all happened yesterday on my way home from work, I was listening to Late Night Tip with my volume at about 80%, then my fuse blew, I figured, fine, I'll just replace it, I do, and play another song, loud, but at a volume I never have problems with, and this fuse blows, and the next. Then I figure that it's the fact that they're "fast blow fuses", and I get the same fuse type I had before, and this blows easily, now I give up, and I need help...

Please... Help.

are you using the correct size of fuse?

Yep, I'm using the 40 amp fuse type that the amp was built with.
