Now think about this - I had a Zapco C2K 6.0X amp, which was 2x150W at 4ohm stereo and 1200Wx1 at 2ohm mono bridged and it had 3x30Amp fuses. So your 2400W monster has 2x15Amp fuses???
Must be very real watts:-):-):-)
OK, now down to business - 15amp fuses are prob to small for your diamond, you should find the amp's specs on line and see what size fuses it needs. Just don't go too big, it will fry the amp:-)

Are you saying your running a 2 ohm DVC and a 8ohm DVS sub together?

if you bridge the amp it will be @4 ohm you are most likely over loading your amp if you wire them tohether wire them like this it should be fine.

put an ohm meter on the amp with the speakers hooked up, to verify it is a 4ohm load, but if those are dual 4, run it in stereo mode, 1 speaker per channel at 2ohm load, power is the same as bridged...
