For an amp that size you need wire that is capable of carrying the current that the amp draws. 60amp inline fuses will keep blowing and will not work because that amp is drawing much more than 60amps. Your amp is busted due to a faulty install. For an amp that size in a car you would have needed at least 4 guage wire and at least a 150a fuse. Fuses are not there to keep blowing constantly, they are there to protect the amp and your car for that couple of times that something goes wrong if you keep blowing fuses eventually something is gonna break. Even if it says that it is far more efficient you should still allow that extra current when needed.</p></blockquote><p></p>
