That depends on whether there is an external amp or not, ras. If it doesn't have an external amp, then the problem can be any number of things.

Check the amp. Make sure it is receiving power and powering up. Make sure the inputs and outputs are properly connected. Make sure the wires aren't broken anywhere. Make sure it is receiving preamp out signals. See if is creating speaker out signals. See if the speakers are receiving inputs.
