What is a DC servo?
Think of a servo as a mathematical building block that INTEGRATES the small amount of DC signal on the amp's output.

Design of a Dynalo Power Supply
The dynalo and dynahi amps have a very similar circuit topology. Both have relatively poor power supply rejection. So, very quiet power supplies and tracking circuits are a way to maximize overall performance. I think that a simple LM317 / LM337 circuit or a 7815 / 7915 circuit solution is...- dgardner

Dynahi PS + smoke = BAD
I have been meaning to post something helpful to the victims of OPA541 smokage. I'm not sure that I can. This same thing happened to me several months ago when I built up my first Dynahi PSU board.
