grr radio install

hey fellas, im stuck in the middle of a radio swap.

I have a non-Bose system, CDR-220, and front amp/changer thing.

I'm putting in a basic aftermarket headunit (from crutchfield, all adapters and wires are correct).

I have the two harnesses correctly wired, and I get power on the unit and it appears to function correctly, but I get no sound at all. There are two stock harnesses, one thin, the other pretty wide. How do I take the cd changer out of the "loop" or if it's necessary, how do i hook it up correctly?

The 4 speaker wires are correctly color-matched to the wiring adapters 4 speaker wires (2 grays and 2 whites). On the adapter that came with it, there are also 2 greens and 2 violets that I did not use.

What did I hook up wrong? Also, I disconnected the alarm's spade connector from the metal housing, do I just leave this hanging when I reinstall the new unit?
