Eliminate ALL possible sources and disconnect amp completely and "bench test", run a independent/temp power and ground wire to amp and even use a separate to make easier and see if it STILL draws.

It looks like this amplifier is drawing .037A, or 36.87mA all the time while the bike is off. 37 milliamps Doesn't seem like much, but is this enough to drain a battery over a week? Anyone else wanna pull their amplifier fuse and measure theirs?
