Well… I'm only a DIY synth wanabee with connections with an analogue 
effect company in Paris.
Now I've read a little and I try to recall my memories of electronics 
from University a _little_ while back ;)

Power supplys as long as they are not high power units or switching 
supplies are not that complex. Stabilization and filtering also. Theory 
is another job, much more complex.
And theory in electronics just squash the important bits under tons of 
blablah. it obscures things more than it clarifies. I leave it to 
Engineers ;)

A little note though for the bold and courageous:

DON'T OPEN AND TOUCH A POWER SUPPLY IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU ARE UP 
TO!

It can be nasty, even deadly. Especially big capacitors… there are 
security stuff to know, and it's not to be joked upon.
