Pro amps get a lot of use with the DIY subwoofer crowd, but some also use them for outboard amplification of mains.

The two disadvantages are the looks (to some) and internal fans for cooling that can get noisy.

There are a few people over at avsforums that know the various brands quite well and can give you good advice. Post in the DIY Speakers and Subs forum
