Speaker Cable Question -Parallel Cabinets from Bridge Mono Amp

Hello,
I have a question about Speaker Cables- If I am running a power amp in bridge mono and have a bridge mono cable connecting it to an 8 ohm cabinet with parallel speakon jacks, do I need a special Cable to connect this cabinet to another 8 ohm cabinet or can I use a standard speaker cable? Thanks.

Bridged mono is used to get a higher voltage into a high impedance speaker. If you have two 8 ohms cabs parallel you don't have a high impedance speaker. Run the amp normal, one cab on each channel.

What power amp? Is it rated for bridge mode into a 4 Ohm load? If not, don't do it.
