Why is a single-supply amplifier's output coupled through a capacitor?
Answer: D
With one rail the output stage idles at half the supply, so a capacitor is needed to keep that standing voltage out of the loudspeaker while passing the signal. Switching frequency belongs to class D, matching is unnecessary, and feedback is taken separately. The capacitor must be large, since it works into a few ohms, and it sets the amplifier's low-frequency limit - which is the principal reason split supplies displaced the arrangement. Naming the cost of a choice alongside its benefit is what turns a fact into a design decision.
