I think I made a mistake with this denon 1911

I can’t get any sound besides static a high volumes to come out from it. I’ve tried plugin the turntable to all input options, and the speakers to the front speakers or where they are currently connected for zone 2 (idk what that means I just saw it as a suggestion while I was looking for tips) I feel like I should have gotten something less complicated, but I also felt that all this stuff is complicated anyway so might as well get something nice..

How do I know the receiver is actually working, or what settings do I need to check?

Note: I bought it without a remote.

Also another question, should I just sell this and buy a mono receiver?? All am gonna use it for is for a turntable
