I have some fairly decent PC speakers (sub-woofer and 4 satellites)

headphone socket (why is that?)


Because they usually plug into the PC headphone outlet which is
likely to be more convenient than one on the speaker amp?


But the pc headphone socket generally doesn't provide enough output to drive
the headphones and in any case, it is often tucked away in a computer
cupboard or on the floor. Speakers that have a headphone socket are much
more convenient.
