PSW303 Replacement Fuse

I've got a PSW303 sub that stopped powering on a while back (no green light). I just removed the back amp plate, and the fuse is fried.
Here are a couple of pictures of it:
Given the level of darkness, I am hoping there's a good chance the rest of the board is okay and it won't immediately blow if I put in a new one.
I can't find any references in the owner's manual or online to the appropriate fuse.
This post seems to indicate that it should be a "2.0 Ampere time delay fuse that is 5mm x 20mm" given that the fuse I have has the same markings (250V / 5S2A). I just wanted some confirmation since I have a different model.
Specifically, I was looking at buying this from Amazon. Thoughts?

Hello,
Yes, that Amazon fuse is correct. However, looking at the discoloration of your fuse it is likely that there's a problem with the bass amplifier besides the blown fuse. If it were a simple broken wire I would suggest replacing it, but contacting Polk's CS would be better. They can be reached at 1-800-377-7655 or via polkcs@polkaudio.com if you've owned the subwoofer less than three years have the date and place of purchase and the serial number handy when calling.
