Just plug in an ipod to the RCAs on the amp and play the ipod see if you get sound, if not its not the RCAs, unless its the RCAs on the amp (unlikely).

no power/volume dial on it, but now it seams to have died because i am getting now power light on it now, where as before it did have power to it.i had new rca cables to test and when i went to try, i saw that power had gone. checked the amp fuse as well as the inline fuse at the battery, but they looked ok.
