Here is a diagram of power connection of tri-amping system with wire size labelled. I need assistance to review the diagram if it's acceptable and has proper wire sizes and fuse used.
PS. All components will be located at the rear trunk of a sedan except head unit, fuse, and battery.
PS2. The ga. unit may refer to AWG standard, I'm not sure. I just called it ga. following the user manual of Soundstream.

Pages 14 and 16 of my website (https://www.bcae1.com) cover this. There is a lot of Flash based content but there is enough non-Flash (for those unwilling to use Flash-capable browsers) that this information will be helpful. The chapters before that are also important but so few people will read, nowadays, I don't expect anyone to read those. If it's not video, no one is interested.
There are about a dozen options to view Flash content on the following page. Bear in mind that these are to be used on my sites and nowhere else. There is no malicious Flash content on my sites. Maxthon 4.9.5 is the easiest. Chromium Portable with the Flash Player files installed is probably the best option.

In general, wire size is determined by the expected current flow through the wire. The minimum wire size that I'd recommend is about 16g due to smaller wire being too fragile. I don't know what the head unit draws but 14g with a 15 amp fuse at the power source would likely be OK.
The crossover could use the same. If 16g was used, a 7.5 amp fuse would be a good choice. 14g and 15A would also be perfectly fine.
For the SS amp, 4g is overkill but OK if it fits the terminal blocks (I think it will).
From what I found, the NAK will draw no more than 36A. The 8g is OK with that.
For the xm-640, from what I could find, it's not going to draw more than 10 amps so anything more than 14g would be overkill.
All taps off of power sources (battery, distribution block...) need to be fused when the fuse before it (or lack of fuse) is greater than the wire beyond the point is rated lower than the previous fuse. The wire capacity on my site and above are determined by the standard of 300 circular mils per amp of current flow.
I'd recommend using a fused distribution block on the positive side. Use MAXI or similar type fuses. Don't use glass fuses. They have too many problems. For smaller fuses, use ATC/ATO or similar.
