Fuse needed between trunk battery and amps?

[7ender 10+ year member]

I've seen quite a few people doing both of these things...so my question- do you think its safe to not run a fuse between my trunk battery and amps?

It seems pretty safe since there arent too many places to short in the trunk...I only worry about one of my power wires coming out of the amp terminals somehow and grounding on the amp case.

What do you think? I already have 6 fuses in my car and cant afford anymore...lol.

Would you rather pay $15 for a fuse holder or have something go catastrophically wrong? Just fuse it.

Mine just blew today on my back battery to amp. But thats probally cause I installed in poorly and it was a tube one on 2400W

Pretty much. If you're wondering if you have to fuse it or not, just fuse it. It won't hurt your system.
