you will damage the receiver. when you do that, you are basically sending out information from one channel of the receiver, to the other channel of the receiver and it will short out the output stages. I did it before with an old receiver, had to send it in for repairs. If you have bi-ampable mains, which means dual binding posts, you can hook up the A speaker to one post, and the B speaker to another post as long as you remove the jumper that connects both posts together, but you won't notice any improvement, just leave it the way it is. If you want more power, just buy an outboard amplifier if your receiver allows you to hookup one, or sell the receiver and get a more powerful one.
