Why monoblocks?


Why run monoblocks? Most amps can handle most speakers, especially those that are 88DB and above in sensitivity. I see pictures of all these speakers being driven in monblock configuration. If the stereo amp can do the job, why spend money on two amps? I mean, what are the benefits?

For the first time in my 7 year experience I've begun thinking about monoblocks. My problem is the expense and having the space for them, which I don't. The mere fact that I'm thinking about this means I'm in too deep.
Now that I have tube monoblocks,I listen to music morning, noon and night; beautiful, glorius music.

Furthermore, I have VAC monoblocks and just bought a VAC stereo amp. Soundstage is the same and I really can't tell if there is any difference in separation. Not to mention, to me the design attributes of the cables is more important than length. In both instances of my comparison I was using 1m interconnects and 5.5m speaker cables. I have tried the other approach as well, but saw no benefit. To me, getting the equipment down farther along the sidewall was a bigger improvement over having the rack of gear or just the amps between the speakers.
