Tube or R-2R DAC for Tube System


My main system is a tube system, tube amps, tube pre-amps, etc. I am in a choice of a new tube or R-2R ladder DAC. I have no doubt about a tube DAC, but I also have heard a lot of good things about the R-2R ladder DACs. May any of you share your opinions?

Check out the Border Patrol SE-i.  R2R DAC, tube rectified power supply.  Doesn't do DSD or crazy-high PCM sampling rates, but sounds heavenly to my ears.   And, Gary is great to deal with.
