Connect AMP stereo to mono bridge

I have a connect amp powering two smallish Yamaha stereo pool speakers. The problem is they are about 20ft apart and it gets rather annoying when some tracks have certain audio parts mixed to only play out of the left channel speaker or only the right.

If i bridge the wires at the back of the amp to send both L and R signals to both speakers (effectively driving them as mono) will it destroy the amp/speakers?

Don't do this.

Hopefully, CONNECT:AMP will shut down, rather than blow up.

Stereo pool speakers? If they are truely stereo they each should have two voice coils and you can safely connect your Connect Amp's right and left outputs each to one voice coil.

If you post a link to the speakers someone here could take a look and see if this is possible.
