Is the option available to get a new amp?

Two speakers suggests you pulled this dinosaur from a forgotten audio bin :)

You can get a decent bluetooth party kit for ~ $100 (give or take, even a
single dedicated speaker sounds better than your phone and can probably do
20 hours on a charge)  if you are looking for a proper audiophile sound
experience,  still i suggest you spend on a surround sound rig that's meant
to sound actually good.

Unless you're just futzing will old parts for the lulz, in which case you
should play around until you toast it and then buy new.
