Is not question of bad profile (I can make every profile sound like shit if I want), is question of commercial politic. The owner of a company running a direct comparative test publicly is the worse example of business ethics I could think about it. Instead of trying to magnify the advantages and improvements of his own product (that, BTW, is freaking awesome!), he takes every chance to turn down the competitor's one. No-go on my book, no respect for that.

You just need to look at Cliffs track record over the last year and a half dissing the KPA at just about every opportunity to draw your own conclusions from this bs......
It's not the first time Fractal is spreading FUD (fear, uncertainty and doubt) about a competitive product.
FUD info & history: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fear,_uncertainty_and_doubt
It's a very common tactic in the businessworld. It's bad ethics and customers don't like unprofessional behaviour like that from a company.
Reminds me of the funny movie Billy Madison.
The quizz competition at the end where it's instant failure on the topic "business ethics".

I saw that thread and it does seem pretty unethical and not needed. It does reek of a sense of jealousy and or desperation. If I would venture a guess I would think that Cliff has noticed more and more AxeFXII users like myself become impressed with the KPA and decide to leave the Axe behind in favor of the KPA. If word keeps spreading on how incredible the KPA is that could eventually start hurting his business, especially as the KPA evolves and gets even better! So in an effort to stop people from jumping ship so to speak he has started a stealth campaign of slammin the KPA.
As a new KPA user I dont know what this aliasing issue is. (is it bad?) All I know is I really love what I hear from the KPA. To my ears it feels like a real live amp compared to my AxeII and the tone is what I am after. I've only had my KPA for a week and so far its really impressed me! I dowloaded a ton of profiles, updated the new firmware and trying to learn all I can about it.
