if it were me i'd just put a bigger fuse in, but that's probably not the correct way to fix it...

1. It could be earthing somewhere before the power gets to the sub.
2. It could be too much power required, it is irrellevant whether it is a Built in Sub/Amp package, the power it takes could be more than the fuse rating or even more than what the cable can take.

can you be more specific? what fuse is it? what rating? how have you wired it up? have you not ran a new live from the battery to the amp? sounds like you are overloading which ever circuit you have connected the amp to.

the only wire on the amp that should be put into an existing circuit is the Remote Wire. this wire takes very little current and should not really cause a fuse to blow.
