Thanks forl your coments...after about 150 hours i can assure that it almost disappear on the ambient. It is quite incredible how these two TOTEMS(Gigantic horns) sound so sweet at the end.
As i hadn´t found it in the manuals, is there a specific speaker for left or right? Once the rear drivers(tweeters) could be turned to the walls or to the center of them. Or again is it a question of taste? I guess it interferes a bit on the stage.
Thanks again
Jimmy

I talked to Giovanni at Sonus Faber today. he told me that it is up to the user. It depends on the room..... I told him i think Sonus fAber manuals should be more complete.

Since the Sound Field Shaper is designed to help perfectly adapt Aida to the listening room and your set up within it, the SFS could conceivably face either way. Having said that, every room I have tried her in ends up with the SFS aimed toward the back wall, not the outside wall.

The place it might end up the other way is in a large room with the speakers placed too close together. At that point you might get benefit from the added energy outside the speakers. But that's just a guess. I don't ever plan on putting Aidas too close together.
