Need Help Fast!

Over the course of 2 weeks I have been installing a entire system in a 1992 Bluebird school bus. I have 8 speakers and 2 subs in the bus. There are 2 amps. A jensen 840w 4 channel for the speakers and a magnum 1000w mono channel. I hooked up everything and there is power coming to the jensen but the magnum is in protect mode. Both are brand new and all the fuses are good. I have the rca cable coming from the rear output on the back of the headunit. the rca's connect to the jensen then a second rca goes from the jensen to the magnum amp. I hooked up the subs to the magnum and the speakers to the jensen and no sound comes out. Im frustrated and cant figure out what could be wrong. Does anyone have any ideas???

Check all ground and speaker wire connections first . Then go from there .

The amp wouldnt turn on without the ground would it?

Disconnect the subs from the amp and see if it powers up in protect mode.
