TV blowing its own speakers? The TV needs to go loud enough to sound loud for normal TV programs, but if you then play a sound created to be as harsh as possible on the speakers (like a square wave) then I guess maybe you could blow them as the speakers in TVs generally aren’t very good. To protect against that they’d either make regular tv shows sound quiet or spent money designing some kind of audio analyzer failsafe that 99.999% of users will never activate.
Blowing speakers you plugged in? Your TV doesn’t know how powerful your amp is, so if you set the amp volume too high for the tv’s output it won’t know you did that.
