FWIW, I would buy an integrated amplifier model and use it with my existing speakers if it were cheaper than buying a new SB and a set of powered speakers. Aye, but there's the rub! Gotta pay for the amp somewhere, right? So I might as well buy powered speakers and get a speaker upgrade while I'm at it.
Not many folks used powered speakers, or would want to. And even fewer add up the dollars and cents of a complete system and choose the one that's $10 cheaper. Convenience, flexibility, style also play into the buying decision.
My point isn't so much what _I'd_ like, as if I expected Slim to start up the design and manufacturing process from one post, but that there's a market for a variety of product models rather than producing just one "lowest common denominator" product. Whether Slim Devices currently has the resources to offer a more complete product line is a different question.
