If you have to ask, you should not attempt this. - at least not on the amplifier output side.
On the preamp side piece of cake. Use Y-adopters to sum the L&R into a summed mono output and us only one channel of the amp.

I have a single-voice speaker installed in a steam shower. Obviously it'd be better not to only hear the L or R channel while I'm slowly melting in a steamy mist.
What's the best way for me combine two channels off the amp into the speaker? Would I build a circuit with some resistors off each channel to make sure I'm not overpowering the speaker? Is there a pre-built solution to this?
connecting two power amp outputs to a single speaker is not significantly different from simply plugging one amp output into another amp output. The 4 or 8 ohms of the speaker will see very little of the total power, since the speaker cables connected at the speaker terminals will total, most likely, less than half an ohm. The two amps will try to drive each other. If you're lucky, the amps' protection circuits will kick in and you'll get silence. If you're not lucky, something will fail. Like a power transistor. Possibly with smoke involved.Hi all!
