Few of the Emotiva amps have been bridgeable. The only one I know of for a certainty is the XPA-2 gen 1 & 2.

Question: Can you bridge (run in parallel) several channels of the A-500 or A-700 amplifiers?

No the A-500 and A-700 amps are not bridgeable. If you are in need of more power than the A-500 or A-700 look a the new A-5175.
