Factory Stereo Problems

Hello!

My 96 TA convertible is having a stereo problem. It keeps popping fuses left & right. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason for it (it doesn't happen under specific scenarios, that I can tell). It popped the 1st time while just driving down the road. Later that day, I bought some more fuses, and they would pop immediately. This was last week. Well, I finally had the chance to look closer yesterday. I pulled the stereo out of the dash, inspected for bare wires and such, and put it back in. Upon putting a new fuse in, it worked fine. I shut the car off. I came out later in the evening to move the car and found it wasnt working again. Put in a new fuse. Worked great again. Came out this morning and started it, and it blew about 2 seconds after starting it. I have no idea whats going on! It is keeping memory though. Presets work when a new fuse is put back in, & time will still works when the fuse is blown; I just have to hit the minute button to see the time. Also, CD's will still eject.

Any ideas as to what is going on? I still have the factory set up, and have never touched any of the wiring our stereo componants.

Ideas?
