It's a common idea, especially here, that most audio products are poorly engineered and built to cost. Hence the reason for all these expensive upgrade components that are in many cases the same cheap part with a fancy skin applied - notably audiophile capacitors.
But if you believe that, then why would a cost cutting manufacture add coupling capacitors if they were not needed? I mean even the cheapest caps cost pennies not to mention the added board manufacturing costs.
Doesn't make much sense does it? This equipment is cheaply designed yet they add parts that serve no purpose?
Hmmm
