Perhaps you need an amplifier and some speakers to? And don't forget the cables to connect everything. Then connect the receiver to an antenna and put a cassette with music in the cassette deck before pressing the play button.
It's hard to know without putting on a bench and doing diagnostics or, maybe a tech with experience on these decks knows of common weaknesses.

Whatever happened it probably isn't good. Smoke is usually sign of a fairly significant electronic failure of some sort. The Dragon is arguably the holy grail of tape decks, so it would be worth fixing back to good health.
The CD player muigt be able to rescue by a reset top factory settings, mostly available in your manual, the cassette deck i think needs to be repaired.
Dear all
Hi!
I am a electronics engineer and I have Nakamichi 680ZX cassette deck, its FL indicators are not functioning.
I had checked for both channels output signals on switch PCB. I had received audio signal on pin # 5 of IC 904 (RC4560D) on Indicator PCB C ***'y, further no signal on pin # 7 but (-)10 Volts DC with respect to ground, of the same IC.
I would appreciate if you could guide me to rectify the problem. Please also note that I have complete full service manual for Nakamichi 680ZX.
Best Regards

My owner's manual is long lost, what do you need to know?
I don't know what problem you have, but mine, which Iv'e had since circa 1988, suddenly developed a failrly loud whistle from the speakers. I opened it for a looksee, and by chance spotted a dry joint on teh PCB. It had never been soldered properly. After soldiring that joint, the whistle is gone.....
could be the speaker, try connecting another speaker and cable and see if it improves. If the problem is still there and you've checked all the settings insuring that its not turned down, then could be an internal problem with the receiver.
Hope this helps a little at least.
it has probably thrown the capstan belt and will require a new belt fitted. the transport relies on capstan rotation to engage play. a separate reel motor operates ff/rew and takeup funtions
