If your amp turns on (light comes on) but no sound comes out, I'm gonna bet it has to do with the converter not sending signal into the amp.
if you have a DMM check if you have signal coming out of the converter. I'm not familiar with the one you posted. Some require grounding.

found it:
http://www.builderdepot.com/browse.i...19&pid=1798336
Level 7 adds Remote turn on and precision SMT contruction over levels 3 and 5.
PRO Series 4-Channel High Power Line Output Converter
Designed to optimize audio levels between radio and amplifier to achieve the best audio quality
Ideal use when replacing factory (OEM) radio or amplifier
Configurable for speaker level or RCA level input/output
Single dial, precision matched stereo, level gain adjustment
Signal-sensing circuit for amplifier remote turn-on
Surface Mount Construction (SMT) for reliable and noise-free operation
Ultra-compact size for greater installation flexibility
looks like maybe remote power on on the line convertor not connected or perhaps configuration incorrect - I am not familiar with this converter
