By stopped working what do you mean no sound or no power?

The ground could have been disconnected, or not grounded very well. I'd check that next i think.

Blown speaker? And the fault is causing the deck to shut off in protection..... take a multimeter to measure ohms of each speaker.

short in one of those? usually things like that are integrated in fuses. did you check the relays under the hood for a clicking noise and corresponding control of mirrors and radio? also, did these incidents occur at the same time?

also when you say not getting power do you have power, ground, and switched power? if so which one of these is lacking 12 volts? (obviously besides the ground)?

i know this may sound funny but smell the radio for a burning smell.

also what ohm were all your speakers reading?
