Aside from convenience, building them into the same box would seem
to remove any problems with ground loops/interface compatibility
between the preamp and the main amp.<br>

It may be. But I think that it is in the wrong place. I have
installed many sound systems, and they all have had two parts.
There is a low level signal processor, which we may call a mixer,
and the high-level power amplifier. Building them both into one
box does not seem sensible, to me. The interfaces may well prove
incompatible, and there has been enough correspondance about earth
connections to sink a battleship.<br>
