Well I cheked the fuse's and **** and none of them looked fried to my eye, Is their only 2 fuses on Kicker 750.1Xz?

I got money to buy a new amp but **** I dont wanna lay down more bills to blow another 1. This amp had more then enough power to push my 12's **** Im pissed.

I always thought when I heard people say they fried their amp's they exploded with smoke or ****. Mine just stopped working wtf is that bs atleast if it's gonna get fried I wanna see some fireworks and **** total ********.

Maybe the thing aint fried, how do I "Know it's fried"

 
Why not try to figure out why it blew and prevent it from happening again. Bad ground is the #1 culprit, #2 is making the amp do something it was not designed to do, 3rd is failure of a protection circuit. #4 is that it was just time. #5 is that it was a POS right from the start.

 
You can't always tell if fuses are blown by looking at them.. Test them with a meter to find out for sure.. But yes, usually if an amp blows, you let the magic smoke out, which is bad.. If it didn't smoke, I doubt if it's blown..
