amp gone in smoke!! what do i do?

[SQBubble 10+ year member]

ok so i was bumpin' and after a while(10-15min), my fuse popped so i park/turn off the car, go to the back and change my 50amp fuse(got a couple for backup in the car) so then i turn on the car, i start turning up the volume VERY slowly...

then I hear and see a BIG spark as if a thunder was in my trunk(the amp is *****)... and electrical smell and smoke went off, but not alot..., so i turn off the car straight up and go take off my rear battery's negative connections...

so now idk what to do? what did cause this? and why my fuse popped in the first place(does that sometimes, not the first time)... is it safe to plug things bak? the reason i dindt is because I dont want my trunk to be caught in fire:blackeye:

any help?

Looks like time to buy a new amp...recheck everything when you hook the new one up...ground resistance...ohms on subs...make sure no cut or pinche wires...also make sure the ohm load of your subs matches what your amp is rated at...
