it does not really make a difference where you have your d/a converters.
monitors with spdif in don't make your studio more high-end or more
professional. the conversion has to take place somewhere.
if you're thinking of those "digital speakers" which feed some special
digital signal directly to the speaker cones and let the membrane do the
low-pass filtering, i think they didn't catch on, and i'm sure they have
as many (if different) problems as any other concept.

i think i need speakers too.
Is there anything like digital speakers or digital amps which
can accept ADAT directly from my linux box and turn it into
sound?
There are now powered studio monitors that will take digital out and
need no external amplification; I think that'll be my next studio
purchase when there's the cash!
I have not yet gone into the local Guitar Center to listen to them
yet as that would just make me frustrated at this time! Check out
websites like musiciansfriend.com to see what's out there - try a
search on "digital monitor speaker".
