Class D amps are about 80% efficient, so take your figure from your class D amp, 125amps, and multiply it by .2 (or 20%) to add efficiency. 125amps (from the total RMS/12 of the class D amp) + 25amps (the class D efficiency) which gives you 150amps. So your 1500watt class D amp will draw around 150amps.

How much does a fuse affect the sound?

Moving on, Bob Cordell is his great book “Designing Audio Power Amplifies” did measure fuse THD in an audio output stage. It’s section ‘13.11 Fuse, Relay and Connector Distortion’ page 268. “At 20 Hz, amplifier distortion due to the fuse is calculated to be 0.0033 %.” Click to expand…
