It's interesting that they laid out the socket for a OP-AMP. I've never
seen an op-amp installed there, they just use that socket to plug in a cable
that leads back to the sound board. Makes you wonder what their original
intent was?

I would assume they would be trying to provide isolation of the DAC output
from the capacitance of the cable and the loading of the comparitors.
