I have an uber awesome amp, why buy a speaker with a built in woofer sub-woofer amp


I'm wondering why there is a market for awesome speakers that have built in sub woofer amps - e.g. Triton 1,2,3 ; ZuAudio Definition and so many others.

As far as I know built in amps are almost never put under the reviewers microscope. So while the amp and speakers I purchase may well have been, the amp inside the speaker isn't.

So, if I have a really good amp and I'm looking for a good pair of speakers, why would I (anyone) want a set of speakers with a built-in amp, especially one of unknown quality?

I concur- not into this kind of speaker either. Additionally, I do not like the sound of speakers that feature side-fire woofers?
