Else, it sounds like I have two options:(1) Go sub-out, bridge my amp, and run the subs in mono. Two questions:
(a) Is it better if the sub-out sees a 4 ohm or 16 ohm load?
(b) Will I lose the subs in two-channel audio (digital bypass) mode?(2) Buy a separate amp for my mains.

Follow Ups:
1. If you want to run the subs from the receiver, I recommend you use a Y-connector on the "sub out", with separate interconnects to the left and right channel of your sub amp (one sub per channel). Dual mono subs seems like overkill, but I don't know the specifics of your situation.Bridging is usually a compromise, but it can work in some instances. If you bridge, series connection would be far better than parallel, because bridged operation with parallel amps and 8 ohm speakers will create a punishing 2-ohm load.
I've heard people say the "sub out" works in stereo on the T751, but it doesn't in my system. I don't use the receiver for stereo anyway, and I don't like a HT sub for music.
2. A separate power amp for the main channels is an obvious solution but I didn't mention it because it's expensive.
As much as I like the NAD receiver, it may be simplest to go with another brand. I doubt if anything in its price range will touch it for music though, if that matters to you.

I read on the NAD site that the sub-out does work with this amp when playing music. It's in the FAQ.
