Man sorry I'm late to this. Could have saved you a month of looking.
The original amps are Clarion. I added one more, to drive a pair of Bose indoor outdoor speakers mounted in the aft line locker facing out. I always found that if we were floating behind the boat, I had to turn the cockpit up to 11 to be able to hear it. Not good for anyone onboard. I added a wired remote to the coaming locker, so adjustments could be made from the swim ladder. Added another wired remote to the helm, because when it's time for the music to be off, I want total and immediate control of that.
I just use an old school Boss system, with no Bluetooth, no XM, and one Aux input. I have a 4 way box that switches input between TV, external Bluetooth receiver, XM Roady, and an Echo Dot/ship PC. XM receiver and Bluetooth are mounted on a plate that is in the cavity of the CD changer. I further mounted 2 switches on the side of the settee, that control power to the amp for the cockpit, and the amp for the "garage". That way, we can rock away below without disturbing neighbors at a marina or anchorage.
The TV is a Roku TV, so now I have too many possibilities of music sources, where 10 years ago, this was a struggle.
