Put a capacitor and 1/2 amp fuse in both lines to the speakers. The amps may not like this because bsically you tie two outputs to one speaker adding a load to each amp. Incorrect. The amplifiers outputs are a very low impedance capable of putting out lots of power, and connecting two together could result in damage to one of them. Certainly no good sounds will result. Adding capacitors will distort the sound. too small a cap will lose the low frequencies, too large a cap will damage the amplifiers. So, you cannot do this without a switch. You could use a SPDT switch for each speaker, tying the grounds together, but some types of amplifier will not like this, so use a DPDT switch to switch both leads at the same time. A circuit could be designed to detect output on one of the two amplifiers and switch (via relays) the speakers to the active amp. <><><> I did this. Use a "line out converter" on the TV output. It converts it to a line level signal and loads the amp in the TV. Plug this into an aux input on the stereo. Use the stereo amp to listen to both.

Why can't get any sound as TV is hooked up to a receiver?

Assuming you are connected to the audio output connectors on the TV, you might have to turn up the volume of the TV to get any audio to appear at the output connectors. If it is a high end set, go into the audio menu and switch the audio output to FIXED. This will give you full level audio at the connectors and then turn down the sound from the TV speakers. Don't use the internal speakers when using the sound system.

HOW do I hook up speakers to my 52in. flat screen HD TV?

If there are no speaker connections on the back of the TV, then you need to buy a sound system. The 5.1 is popular and many programs are recorded with a Surround 5.1 audio track. This system will have its own amplifier and sometimes speakers. Something with about 100 watts per channel would be good. Then connect AUDIO OUT from the TV to AUDIO IN on the sound system. Go into the audio menu and set the Audio output to FIXED.
