Why are my mosfet fuses blowing?


I have a Classe CA-200 Power Amplifier/200 watts per channel into 8 Ohms (side heat-sink version)which is driving a pair of Thiel CS2.3s with upgraded coaxial tweeter/midrange. Sound is very good. I listen at relatively high volumes and recently (over the last year) the amplifier is getting hot within 60 to 90 minutes of listening and the mosfet fuses (2AG 1/2 PT, 1/2 amp fast blow) have been blowing. Do I need a higher powered amplifier to listen at high volume? Should I look for a used CA-200 and use one to drive each speaker (700watts into 8 Ohms)? Thanks.
