BACK WHERE THEY BELONG

摘要

While all 30 or so pairs of the limited edition 'The Sonus faber' were quickly snapped up, some found it to be too much of a departure from the signature look of this revered Italian house. With Aida, the company wisely reverted to the more curvaceous lines expected of the brand. With Aida, Sonus faber has again devised a new shape that will have its rivals crying onto their graphics tablets. It possesses the 'lute' cross-section that made the Guarneri and its offspring so noteworthy, but the new look encases the core speaker in a wooden wrap to add depth and detail. It is a tour de force, and I for one can't wait to see a version in the 'blonde' wood used for the recent Anniversary models, as well as any smaller versions Aida might spawn. Sonus faber has done it again.
