there is NO QUESTION that the Dodson DA-218 is FAR beyond the ECD-1 (so the Dodson is the merceded, the ECD-1 is the yugo)...although that's unfair, because the ECD-1 is more like a Camry or Accord. But the high-end Dodson is without question far beyond the ECD-1. Dodson is in the class of Meitner, dCS, Zanden, etc...
