The speakers above your head ... Or the roof?

Geese flying overhead? (Especially Canadian geese) May have to clean the roof off.

Is the sound from the roof possibly actually coming from the speakers and could be some sort of surge through the electrical system that the speakers are picking up hence the radio reset as well?

Definitely the roof but anything up there is well secured and it comes and goes. . Checked the factory xm antenna is secure
I'm doing the hip bone leg bone approach. The roof is connected to nothing. The speakers are connected to the radio. . Which broke. Could it be a thwunk coming out of speakers...? That would go like ...'thwunk and then the radio went off'. I just don't see a dinosaur biting your roof being the problem. I do see Gremlins in the wiring... My 2c ;)

Yes that. Although I'd still watch out for dinosaurs.

Look for anything that would be a bare wire or loose connection of some sort. Good luck, electrical issues are the worst to chase down.
