Power fuse amp rating question
I am in the process of installing the following amps: PPI PC-2400 and a SONY ES 1004GX. The PPI puts out 400W RMS? and the SONY puts out 800W peak. I also have a 1 Farad cap going in, but i don't know if that make a difference. I already have a 60 amp fuse in from my old system, will i need a bigger fuse?

Keep the 60 in there. If you blow it, go to a higher fuse size. Just don't go bigger than the sum of the two amp fuses.
