What's the value in lots of capacitors inside a line stage preamp?


On one system I am using a Conrad Johnson gat2, and it's loaded with Teflon capacitors and step attenuator volume control, vishay, and I'm sure lots of other lovely things going on.  It's doing a great job.

But I have no idea how important all those capacitors are except that they store a lot of reserve power and are available to fulfill Power demands of musical changes.  Maybe that's all I need to know.
