can i use the +/-16 (using 5532 both on MAC and on DINGO) or the +48 with a power rail splitter?
i will put inside a lundahl trafo...
The 500 series +/-16v works fine with tthe dingo with NE5532AP or OPA2604AP or JLM99v low volts versions or Hybrid opamps. The MAC kit comes with a OPA2604AP and runs on what ever voltage the dingo is running on including +/-16v. The MAC should only use a OPA2604AP due to the fet input offset being better than the transistor input offset of the NE5532AP.

The 48v rail in 500 series is very low current so should NOT be used except for phantom power use.
great, tnx a lot for the explanation, and for the fast answer...
can i use a Dingo PUP instead the full version?

Yes dingo pup is fine but if driving a output transformer like the lundahl you really want a discrete output opamp like JLM99v low volt or hybrid to drive this properly so the dingo would be best. Normal NE5532A can only drive 1:1 transformers poorly and cannot drive higher ratios at all.

great, i've just buyed a Dingo full version...this means i can use my LL1539 (is a 2 : 1+1) on output, and i'd like to mount an API 2520 on output stage, and an OPA2604 on input stage...any advice with this configuration?
Tnx in advance

It will work fine but the +/-V voltage will have to be +/-16v to +/-18v for the 2520 which the OPA2604 will run on fine.
