What you mean you checked all the speakers? Tested each one behind the head unit to make sure none were grounding out? Also test the ohm load on each speaker to make sure each was correct?

fuses would have nothing to do with lack of sound...speakers and speaker wires are not fused circuits...already been stated it has power just no sound

Hook up a test speaker directly to the radio harness and see if you get sound. it might just be a bad radio out of the box
