To help you better we atleast need to know if the K100 model you have is a combo type, or a piggiy back model?
Both the K100-1 and K100-2 are piggy back models and have but one main circuit board mounted to the front of the amp.

If you have replaced both output transistors and the driver Transistors you may still have a bad Tantaum type cap that is shorted, but I would think that a fully bad cap like that would be showing signs of being burned and black if not blown near apart to be taking the fuse out like that !
If you disconnect the red wire on each of the output Transistors on the chassis does the fuse still blow?
