Indeed it's labelled "DC 24V", which doesn't explain why it's blowing when on mains power. No experience of this amp (& can't find anything useful online), but the DC fuse should just sit between the DC input socket & the output of the power-supply, so with no 24V connected there shouldn't be any current flowing (even if something has gone short-circuit). Does the amp work if you just remove the fuse?

Without the fuse the amps not working.

The DC fuse is likely used for mains and 24V operation. If it's anything like the TOA amps, the 24V DC input feeds into the rectified transformer supply via a separate diode. Here's how the TOA A500 series do it.

Thats what I was thinking. Just trying to work out whats causing the fuse to go. The last time it went apparently there was a hot signal coming into the amp.

just a wild guess from looking at the front panel id say its for the 24v DC input

Thats what I had guessed. However they are using it on 240. The only thing I could think is if there's a transformer to take the 240 down to 24v dc. 

Hi has anyone got any experience with the above amplifier? It has 2 fuses on the front, 25a and a 5a, keep having issues with the 25a fuse keep blowing. But not sure what that fuse is actually protecting and so where to look for the fault. The amp.can run of 240v or 24v, currently using the amp on 240. 

Cheers for any help.
