Hook your amp back up again, and make sure it stills powers(make sure nothin came loose)

Then, hook up new amp again, make sure all connections are tight.

First place to start.

And did you check your fuse under the hood to make sure you didnt pop it when you took it out?

x2 on what mistergrubbs said. if not open up your amp and check out the board look for burn marks etc....

speaker wires and rca's secure. make sure you have your rca's on the input side and not output. also check your filters, some of them may be on
