Speakers on one side of boat not working

I have the stock Wet Sounds audio system in my 2020 242X. About every trip out, the 3 speakers on the left side of my boat (bow, main sitting & swim deck) stop working. Later in the day, they sometimes come back on. The tower speakers and sound bar are always working. I did check the main red/black wires behind the helm going into the Wet Sounds boxes/amps to see if there was a loose connection.

I'm not familiar yet with the system. Maybe there are loose wires in the plastic connectors.

Anyone here have experience with this issue or possible solutions?

TIA!

If all wires are secure it is most likely the amp or head unit going out. I would start by reseating all the connectors, then when it goes out I would check to see if you have any red lights on the amp or if it feels overly hot. I'm not familiar with the exact setup on your boat but I would guess those 3 speakers are on the same channel of the amp? Are the tower and sound bar on the same amp or a different one?

Sounds like the amp going into protect mode due to heat or possibly loose connections.
