I just got this amp for free and I hooked it up and it keeps blowing the first 2 fuses any ideas?

if a fuse just pops like that there are generally power supply issues. If you have a power supply try to power it with a very light load and see whats up...like 5 amp and watch to see where it is shorting

take the cover off and take a look for anything that looks wrong. Swollen caps, blackened componants or parts of the circuit board ect....

I bought a new XS2500 for my cousin from my favorite shop and it was sent back to PG 3 times for the same power supply problems when it happened the 4th time he tossed it in the saskatchewan river in Saskatoon
