I was thinking that both DSPs and Amp would be in the same box ... save on power supplies, cases and maybe DSPs ... although If you split them into two boxes then then we are talking about a 500W supply for each ... which could be a savings (Since I don't have any $ numbers I can't really say).
Putting them in the speaker works but in both cases ...
There is an advantage to a separate amp ... you can upgrade the amp without trading in the whole system. Also you get to use the 10 channel amp for something else if and when your upgrade/sell/trade in/retire the LFRs. It's gonna come in handy for that 11.4.14 channel surround system we are all going to have in a few years ...
