You have a dead short some where or a wrong power connection. Have some one who knows about it to check it.

If you keep putting these fuses in before finding the problem you will have no car.

Yeah, you're going to have to bring it to a professional. Something very wrong is happening. And if you keep dropping fuses in, you're asking for more damage then just the fuse...
Bring it to someone asap.

ohm out the red power wire from the factory connector to ground, if no reading, then the deck side of the connector is shorting out (or the deck itself is messed)

Athanatos, would you mind explaining the steps of your suggestion. How does one "ohm out" the power wire? I've never had to do any troubleshooting like this...
Checking with a DMM, I assume? He's checking the power wire from the vehicle side of the wiring harness?

Before he gets this far, what if he was to remove the RCA's at the amp? This would isolate the amp. If the fuse still blows even though the amp isn't getting a signal, would that indicate that the amp is the problem? The amp shouldn't be drawing any current if there's no signal to amplify - unless I'm incorrect about this.
