I originally had a 1500.1bd running 1 13w1. it just shut off, made no noise, no smoke, nothing.. that ones gone. I now have a 1000.1bd running 2 jl 13w3v3s at 1ohm and it did the same thing. you put a fuse in and then power the amp and it will power on for about 2 seconds and pop the fuse. its not going into protect mode or anything at all. I've tried powering it without the subs hooked to it and it does the same thing. I currently have another pos amp in there running the subs now so they're not the problem. everything I read said these are stable at 1ohm. and the 1500.1 with the 13w1 was running 1 sub at 4ohm. what could this be??!?!?! all of my wires are installed clean and no chaffing or bare wire anywhere.

Don't run amps at one ohm that aren't meant to be ran at one ohm

Sounds to me like a grounding issue. Not enough flow of those electrons required for power. DMM the continuity between the ground and your amps ground input

Pics of the amps please. I'd like to verify generation before making any guessing about your issue

If it blows a fuse, with the speaker wires not hooked up.. its out put side, or power supply.
