Default Dings but No Audio - Audio Issues

Howdy fellas, a few days ago I was driving home from work and out of nowhere my audio just simply stopped working. Almost as if I pressed a mute button and I can't seem to figure out what happened. I have a Kenwood DMX7704s aftermarket headunit, which seems to be still receiving signal, but not outputting it... I'm not use if it's an amp or headunit issue because I still have all my dings.

Things I've done to maybe fix the issue:
Checked fuze 31 (amp) and the deck fuze in the floor board. Both good, removed and reinstalled to maybe reset. Haven't replaced them yet though.
Also removed the battery terminals, let sit, reinstalled. Still no luck.
Factory reset the headunit, still nothing.

I'm trying to do everything I can before I pull it all out again, so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Also, here is a short video to maybe help with explanation

Do you have a Bose system other than the HU? Could be the amp is blown.

Non-bose system. Totally base. Sorry should have added that.

Nope! And that's what I thought at first. But not the case sadly.

Can you describe your entire setup?

I understand you are not using a bose amp, are you using an aftermarket amp. If so, is it turning on?

If you are running speakers directly off the head unit, have you confirmed the right wires are going to the right speakers?

I'm currently running the stock amp with stock speakers. The entire system is factory base, with the acception if the Kenwood DMX7704s head unit. And I believe the wiring is correct considering it's worked for about two months now without a single problem. Also, how can I confirm that the amp is turning on?

I don’t think there is any LED on the stock amp to show that it is turned on. Do you have a multimeter? If so, you can probably use that to see if there is power coming into the amp by testing the 12v+ and remote turn on lead. If power is getting to the amp, you can then use the multimeter to get a output reading on the speak out wires. If the amp is sending some signal to the speakers, the multimeter should show something.
