Sansui 9090db powers up but no sound

Hello everyone, first let me say that this community is incredible. I learn more by browsing forums than any other resource. 
Today, I discovered a 9090db for sale with the description "powers up but has no sound". 
Before I pull the trigger on a purchase, can you give me a heads up on what may be some factors to this problem?
Also, can anyone recommend a repair establishment on the east coast for this if I buy it?

Thank you for all your wisdom,

Marty

Before sending to service, I would make sure the pre-out/main-in jumpers are there and installed correctly. If they are missing or installed incorrectly, that will result in no sound. See lower left side of this picture,

Also, if either of the "Tape Monitor" switches is pushed in, that will prevent anything else from playing.
