How do you make the car stereo work?

Ok I spent 2 days re-wiring my jeep stereo because of backwards wiring someone else did. Up until today everything was working great and then it popped, smoke came out of the back and it stopped working. I pulled it out and the fuse that had been run between the two ends of thr battery wires was toast. No biggy I replaced it but I have no power. None, and a wire tester shows possitive power off the battery but nothing. Is the stereo fried? Is there something I am missing? And ya I checked all fuses in the car and under the hood. BTW this is the first time I saw a fuse between two wires likethat, but all the wiring in this car was jacked upso what else can I do? I personally re ran new speaker wire so what now?
 
try to hook it up without the fuse direct power if that dont work its fried....

also does the stereo have fuses in it...it might of blew those...
