You could put an 7 or 7.5 amps slow blow, would be enough to take a few boom boom loll
1500va / 220 vac is 6.8 amps

DO NOT simply add the VA rating to get an appropriate fuse value. The value should be printed somewhere near the fuse, if not - post back here with a MAKE AND MODEL number and we can probably look it up.

okay on some audiophiles websites you have an t20 slow blow fuse for 220 vac, t40 slow blow at 120vac is it enough ??
Way more than expected and deduced values in my previous post, this one puts tons of amplification wattage ...
Stereo w/ch 1000w x 2/8Ω - 1600w x 2/4Ω - Bridged mono 3200w/8Ω
This puppy has no fuses markings on the case ... ask the company to be really sure

Apparently this is a very high power unit. Therefore I would suggest using ONLY a manufacturer recommended fuse.
I suggest ordering from the manufacturer or distributor. There are special safety considerations for very high power equipment.
