About the Border Patrol SE-i
The Border Patrol SE-i DAC employs a non-oversampling R2R architecture using the Philips TDA1543 chip, paired with a hybrid tube/solid-state power supply featuring choke input filtering and EZ80 tube rectification. This purist design eliminates digital filtering and output buffering, focusing on high-quality signal capacitors (including Jupiter Beeswax film/foil in some versions) for analog output coupling.
