bridging integrated amplifier


Hi, I have a NAD 7220PE. Would it be safe to wire the the left and right channels to bridge to a single 8ohm speaker?
Thanks!

The bridging wiring technique to take the positive from the receiver's right channel and connecting to the positive terminal on the speaker, then take the negative from the receiver left channel to the speakers negative terminal. The speaker is 8 ohm so the load should drop to 4ohms. I'll reach out to NAD also...
Thanks for all the input, I'm following Sandstone's advice. My setup is for my home office and I have limited desk space. I run 2 small speakers next to each other, but I have single large bookshelf that can take up the same space and would give me more low end. I was looking to take advantage of the power options from the stereo but rather not risk off wiring.
