Nicely put, Michael. I would just add that the need to "reinsert" the highs by bypassing a large coupling cap with a smaller one isn't something I've ever been able to measure. In fact, while some DIYers do this "just in case," I take the opposite approach. I refuse to do it for fear of introducing some form of sonic smearing of the signal. That's something we can't measure, and I'd rather be safe than sorry. :)
