Default Problem w/ my stereo???? need help

I have a 1994 GS 300 as my day car. My stereo has no sound, no buzz, nothing is coming out of the speakers. At first it would come in and out, but now it deosn't play anything. It is the stock radio w/ a tape player. I checked to see if it was Antenna, but it shows a full signal. Everything on the head unit displays well, just no sound, can anyone help or let me know what I need to do????

Default GS300 NO SOUND.

IT PROBABLY IS YOUR AMPLIFIER. IT IS MOUNTED UNDER THE CD CHANGER IN RIGHT QUAETERPANEL. IF WATER GETS IN THE TRUNK IT ZAPS THE AMP DUE TO LOCATION . THE NEW 2ND GENERATION AMPS ARE MOUNTED BEHIND GLOVE BOX SOA DRYER LOCATION AND LESS FAILURES DUE TO WATER DAMAGE.
