My amp is blowing fuses...

huh? how is that stupid?

He is partially accurate…

Anyways, the amp is 10 years old!? ive never heard of someone using a amp that long and it still working. id say the amp is trashed. The capacitors inside gradually loose capacitance, and after time, the amp might not work right, or at all… There is a mechanical life, you could be nearing that if your constantly abusing the amp every day for 10 years.

And if its blowing the internal fuse, the amp is likely shot, and there is something going wrong thats causing it to draw more power than it should, and its nowhere near cost effective to repair it…

now thats the dumbest thing ive heard in a long time … amps just dont take a shit over time … I have plenty 20+ year old amps that still work just as good as they did when new
