No sound from Mack !!!

Hi
I have Mcintosh C-26.....Mcintosh 7100, Platinum audio monitors.  MY problem is when i connect the speaker wires to the (C26) main/remote on the back i get nothing......i then connect to the (back) of the 7100 and i get sound .....any idea as to what the problem might be?
                                               Most Thanks in advance

If I'm getting this right, you are trying to connect the speakers to the preamp (C-26)?

If so, your second explanation is what you should be doing. Connect the speakers to the 7100 and then connect the C-26 to the 7100. The C-26 is your volume control and you also connect your sources to it.

OK
I'm getting that, and that's what i'm doing now, but why would they put the main / remote facility there? I would like to add SVS bookshelf as well
