That actually makes sense from the maker and dealer perspective.
Still from a consumer perspective it is nice to know what the manufacturer's sonic aesthetic is. For many years I heard Roksan amplifiers connected to "whatever" the dealers happened to sell and I didn't much care for anything they made UNTIL I heard them on Roksan speakers with a Roksan CD player with Roksan Turntable. Perhaps 15 years went by and I said "Hmm so that is what Roksan is about - that is the sound they're after."
Bryston was usually connected to PMC loudspeakers as they shared importers in Canada and the UK - so you could get a pretty good idea that both companies pretty much had the pro monitor PMC/Bryston sound in mind. Some will like it some won't but at least you knew what both of them were after.
And of course there is the other reason - dwindling amplifier sales or dwindling turntable sales may motivate companies to branch out and sell other products in a relatively stiff market.
