500mA sounds like that would be OK for one power tube like a 6LF6, PL509 or the like. 2 amps OTOH is simply asking for trouble, but I imagine the higher rating might sound a little better as fuses can vary their resistance a little depending on the current flowing through them, and a 2A would be less responsive.

But you really don't want to find out what happens if you need that 500mA fuse! Just make sure its properly installed and no-one gets hurt :)
