How do I hook up 2 preamps to one amp

I have a NAD preamp that I use for music. I have a Lexicon preamp that I use for Video. The problem is I have 1 five chanel amp that I need to use for both preamps. When I try to use rca splitters/y adapters, my speakers play at a low volume. If I disconnect one preamp, the speakers play louder. What should I do to allow both preamps access to my 5 channel amp and not have humming or low volume.

Herman has it right. Line out to line in always works and tape outs are independent of front panel controls. But based on the rather funky arrangement and weird signal flow, combined with probable tape output selectors, lots of ways to get confused and have no sound (flipping buttons madly trying to get audio until YES full output into the amp). Simple is always better sound anyway, use everything through the Lexicon....It must have a 2 channel mode......
