Why do people care what their speaker wants?


Or amp. Or DAC, pre-amp, or whatever. Fill in the blank. Why does anyone care? Are speakers so haughty they get all moody and pouty if you don't give them what they want? I thought the whole point was to have a system that sounds the way we want it to sound? So why all the people asking what goes with what? What do they care? Why?

I agree with MC to a point.
I think the exception would be amp suggestions for hard to drive speakers such as Maggie's.
I see (read) a lot about the fact that that it takes current to run them properly. 
That would be a speaker that I would ask the forum their thoughts on the proper amp in my price range.

Other than something like that, I think the only one to be asked what goes with what is our ears.
