I bought this Head Unit from Crutchfield.com (http://www.crutchfield.com/p_105KDR530/JVC-KD-R530.html?tp=5684&tab=review&mode=review&remail=bl ueazul2010%40live.com&vehicle=16078&stop_mobi=yes# overview-tab

I wired up all the wiring like the diagram showed matched the coloring of the wires and double checked and everything. (except the illumination wire (it said orange but it was white/orange)) And when I plugged it in everything came on on the radio except no sound comes out of any speakers. I would think if I soldered one of the speaker wires backwards it would still come out of the other 3 fine...It will tune to radio stations fine but not play any music. I also checked it by putting a CD in... Its not muted (at least it says it isn't). Is there anything special I have to do? And i am using the $80 adapter as well. It dings when the door is open and the key is in...so that part is working.

I'm pretty stumped to what is wrong. Would it have anything to do with my Monsoon amp? Do I have to bypass it somehow. I would also like to point out that I plugged in my stock radio back in and sound plays fine.

Thanks in advance
