Do you think the fuse would be on the other side of the circuit board? Or am i looking for a differant kind of fuse? maybe its a little electrode looking fuse an not a glass one? Again, any help would be appreciated. CHRIS @ SR20: where did you find that fuse?

I was debating on whether or not I should respond to this thread when you first posted. Since I had nothing to contribute that would help I figured that I would leave it alone. Now I have something to contribute so here goes... Chris@SR20 sounds like he had/has the Soundstream Reference or older series amps since hes speaking about the fuse being on the bottom of the amp. Soundstream reference series amps are NOTORIOUS for frying themselves!!! Soundstream Rubicons had there fuses on the front of the amp where all the hooks ups are made to the amp. I have ran my Rubicons at 1ohm mono playing them HARD for over 2 hours and I pushed them hard everyday during the summer and NEVER once have had a problem with them(this has nothing to do with anything, I know). Ive ran 4 Rubicon 1002's, 1 Rubicon Class A 5.2, and a Rubicon 202 with no problems ever (This has nothing to do with helping you either). My guess on why you cant find the amp fuse on your amp is because it doesnt have one...Rockford amp dont have fuses either because of the way they are built and It wouldnt surprise me if the new soundstream stuff didnt have an amp fuse either.
On a side note. I have never blown a fuse that was on an amp itself. If your fuse blows on your amp its probably toast anyway... the inline fuse on your power wire should be the one that blows if anything.
