Blowing Fuses

I keep blowing the 2 fuses in my amp like it's my job. They were originally 40A fuses, but at autozone the largest they had was a 30A.

The fuses last about a week. Is it because I'm using a 30A, and go back and find some 40A?

Yea if they came with 40's nothing other than that should be used, especially something smaller...

I have a breaker under the hood

And I'll take the advice of getting some more 40A's and see where that goes before I need some more help

If you're blowing the fuses in your amp, and it happens when you turn the volume up.You don't have a sufficent enough ground.
