Well I'm not the electronics guy , but I would not bridge it, no way! Just connect the cab to one "out" of the stereo power amp..I don't get it , your guitar is mono , and when you connect to a amp your going mono..Do you use some stereo effects connected in stereo (delay, chorus ? ) ..

Well if they are stereo you have to connect them in stereo (with two cables to preamp, amp)...
I'm sure they'll sound cool as mono too for live purposes , practicing etc.. -------------------- For GMC support please email support (at) guitarmasterclass.net

I think it would be okay, but I recommend waiting for someone how is good with electronics etc to answer this one (I'm not that guy)

Well one of your inputs on the stereo amp is surely a mono input, and one channel is a mono channel by default. Go through a manual to check out which one. I wouldn't experiment without manual or technical support from the manufacturer at least.

It's pretty simple actually,you just connect one output from you power amp to cab.
Left or Right,it's up to you. Just be sure to turn volume knob fully down on unused amp channel, I guess you power amp has separate volume knobs for both channels. But you'll be missing some sound if you're using stereo effects tho. So I would try to sell that mono cab,earn some buck and buy stereo cab. In a meanwhile don't use effects like ping-pong delay,mono delay is just fine for your current setup. BTW,which power amp do you have,brand,model? -------------------- Youtube

Thanks MickeM.
Well then,your amp has separate volume knobs for channels, just turn down the one you're not using and that's it. Plus it's solid state and you have indeed small chances to damage it by using only one channel. -------------------- Youtube
