Recently one of my arc 2100cxl started blowing the fuse.  The other amp is fine, but when I went to replace the fuse a soon as I turned the system on it blew again.  The grounds and power are all good so I'm figuring that it is something internal.  Has anyone else had a similar problem?

Have you checked the speaker wiring? And metered your speakers, to check their condition (blown speakers can cause this)

Actually, have you disconnected the speakers to eliminate them all together? Also try disconnecting the RCA's to eliminate them as well.

disconnected the rca's but not the speakers, I'll have to try that.  Didn't realize blown speakers would do that.

Sounds like it is time to send it in, unfortunately. Arc though, has pretty good customer service and is quick to get repairs back.
