The fuse I had in my amp went out. It was a 15 amp fuse. I replaced it with another 15 amp fuse. I was wondering what would happen if I put a 20 or a 30 amp fuse in it instead?

The lower number fuses are easier to blow. If you put a higher number fuse it'll take more current to blow it thus having a greater chance of frying whatever it's protecting.
