I personally find your marketing methods highly questionable, completely unethical
Fiio works with the community here, have delivered on time, and only has good things to say about their competition. I've never seen them run-down a competitor in public. Why - because they don't have to. They are confident in their own ability. That is the sign of a classy company and honest campaign.
IMO - yours is not.
Well this sounds familiar.

Looks good, but isn't this bad business practice? You're basically saying "look how inferior the competition is."
It's one thing to do it in a more ethical way by saying "product X beats out the competition" like they do in many scientific test between products, but it's another to basically flat out say "product X beats out products A, B, and C."
V-MODA chose to do the former when designing the M-100 and tweaking their manufacturing process. They did measurements of the M-100 and their quality control against the competition, but they never said what companies/products for ethical and good business practice reasons.
I don't get it. What's unethical about it.
You're basically saying how superior your device is and bragging about it. It's like a cheap shot really.
Name one other audio company who calls out the competition (and a specific model in particular) for being not as good. I can't think of any at the top of my head.
