They not only provide a higher voltage, but typically a lower output impedance. This can help improve high frequency transmission as the capacitive and inductive effects of the interconnects are reduced.

Alma Gates used a PPI PC225 amplifier in the first incarnation of the Bronco as a line driver. The inputs on all 22 amplifier were paralleled to the output of this amp. Smart idea!
i also used an amplifier as my line driver. but most cases if you only have 1-2 amps you should not do this. i know alot of the BIG spl guys that run 10+ amps in setups will use this idea! worked AWESOME for my setup with 8 amps!
