Welcome to AK! and here's hoping whatever is acting up on your amp can be rectified with suggestions from fellow AK'er's

Just a suggestion help us help you, before you post reread what it is you're posting and ask yourself does this make sense.

What you posted earlier is really hard to understand.

Often a reason for no sound, check position of tape monitor switch. It needs to be OFF.

Do you have quad records or tapes and a quad turntable/cartridge or quad tape deck? If not, you won't be hearing quad reproduction.
Plenty of info in these threads

Download the manual from HiFiEngine. It will show you how to hook it up. Remember, this is for the rear channels. You need to have a front channel amp and you have to hook it up correctly to it. Good luck! This is a very cool find!

And welcome to AK!
