About the Border Patrol SPDIF SE

This DAC is known for its purist approach to digital-to-analog conversion, using a Phillips TDA1543 R2R DAC chip without oversampling or digital filtering. The power supply is a unique hybrid design, incorporating a tube rectifier and choke input filtering, which sets it apart from other DACs in the market. The device supports asynchronous USB input and SPDIF (COAX) input, with options for switchable inputs. It is housed in a copper metal chassis and includes high-quality signal capacitors for optimal sound quality. The Border Patrol SPDIF DAC SE is ideal for those who value a rich, musical sound and are not seeking support for higher resolutions like DSD or MQA unfolding.
