AVR preamp out question


Why won't my hooking up my tubed linestage (no bypass) via my AVR's preamp
out work? I would like to use Rogue Stereo 90 for L/R via my tube line stage but it doesn't work, no sound. I can use the amp via the preamp out but would like to utilize the line stage. Consider it a rookie question.
Thanks,

Thanks for all your responses. I did try it again and it works. The problem was that my "little 5687 tubed linestage" doesn't have much output gain so that I have to crank it almost 3/4 full throttle to match my AVR. But it sounds great.
I just bought a Rogue Stereo 90 Magnum from a fellow A'goner and it sounds to good I had the "upgrade bug. I bought a pair of AZ Hologram II speaker cables, a Shunyata Aries IC, and a Cardas Clear USB cord for my Macbook/Maverick DAC !. My system is slowly evoving nicely.
Thanks again!
