Radio is easy to pull out of the vehicle. Check the connection in the back and especially the ground. I would grab any old speaker that you know works and connect to the speaker output on the radio. See what you get. If nothing comes out and you have it connected correctly, there could be an amp problem with your radio. Replace it. Otherwise is sound is there, start tracing the problem from the radio out to the speakers. Not all of the speakers will go at once.

Suggested Repair
Pull the radio and check the rear connections, especially the ground. Connect a known-good speaker to the radio speaker output. If there is still no sound, the radio amplifier may have failed and the radio should be replaced. If sound is present, trace the wiring from the radio out to the speakers, since all speakers are unlikely to fail at once.
Conversation Summary
The owner of a 1994 Honda Accord says the radio powers on and displays a station but produces no sound. The expert advises removing the radio, checking the rear connections and ground, and testing with a known-good speaker. No output suggests a radio amplifier problem and replacement; sound means tracing the wiring from the radio to the speakers.
