Dodson Audio - Still in Business?

Ehoehn,

The DAC-263 has actually been "shelved" for a while. Dodson felt strongly about keeping it at the pricepoint, but price increases from some suppliers made this tough...

I hope it comes back. I own one and love it

anyone heard Dodson AND Audio Logic dacs in the same system? I have the Audio Logic 24MXL, but have never heard the Dodson product.

Which Dodson are you referring to? On AA a few years back, there discussions about the '217 and Altis Ref(sampling rates etc). Search the archives.

Sutts,

I've heard the Dodson DA-218 and the Audio Logic 24MXL in my system during a DAC shootout I hosted a little over 2 years ago. Not the best acoustic environment at the time (I've since moved an have a much better listening room), but still good enough to hear differences. Here's a link to some pictures and discussion about the shootout:
