Hard to argue with someone who doesn't know what they're talking about. 
Generally, running an amp in bridged mode will increase the THD and amount of heat generated. Will the increase in distortion be measurable by scientific instruments? Yes. Will the increase in distortion be detectable by human ears? No.
BTW, 99.99999% of signals will have some level of distortion in them. So, I guess we're all running "dirty" signals.
My ATI does sound a tick worse in bridged mode. But you didn't mention what amp you are speaking of. Mcintosh quotes no difference in bridge mode. As far as distortion goes about every amp amplifies the signal to a much higher level then it will cut the tops and bottoms off then do it agin. Why do you think there are stages?
First, you need to read up on what bridging actually is. You're confusing it with clipping (more hints you have no idea what you're talking about).
The amount of misinformation, half-truths, and blatant false information in your posts hurts my head so much that I need to go to sleep now...
