I agree with Abstract. Keeping the signal ( and the reactance ) from the ESL panel seperate from the signal ( and reactance ) from the woofers is probably MUCH better than trying to force one amplifier channel to deal with both. As such, i sincerely doubt that those amps would like to see a load of that nature when bridged ( monoblock ).
Not being overtly familiar with Logan's, i would look into what other owners of such speakers suggest. After all, who knows better than someone that HAS "been there, done that" ??? Play with speaker placement as much as is humanly possible and then spike them in place.
As to speaker cables, be careful with what you use. At that length, various designs begin to work and look ( electrically ) MUCH better than others. Cables with very high capacitance ( Goertz, etc...) or high inductance ( like the Monster that you're using ) WILL become very noticeable "tone controls" and could even cause amplifier instability if not dealt with properly. This is besides the fact that they could become "long wire antennas" for nearby transmitters and stray RF in the area. Something that makes use of a network or at least uses some type of braiding / twisted pairs / small multiple conductors in a litz configuration, etc... would also be worth checking into.
Since you're using E-stat's, try reading the "articles" section in Pass Lab's website. Look for an article entitled "speaker cables: Science or Snake Oil". Nelson did some testing of various speaker cables a LONG time ago ( 1980 ) using his old Dayton Wright e-stat's as a reference. I think that you'll find it pretty educational to say the least. As he states, each system is different and heavy gauge is NOT always best. Below is a direct link to the specific article for your convenience. Hope this helps... Sean
