Vivid Audio G1 Giya

Vivid Audio original product, designed by internationally renowned acoustic engineer Laurence Dickie, the GIYA G1 remains the reference standard for all Vivid Audio loudspeakers, and the entire audiophile world. What you’ll notice about first is its unique curved outline: form following function with rare and complete devotion. But what really stays with you, and keeps you coming back for more, is the sound.
There is simply not one review out there of these speakers that isn't glowing with praise for their performance, in ALL areas - a true audiophile speaker for those with systems to justify them.

Finished in the most popular 'Pearl White' finish and in excellent condition.
Great opportunity to buy one of the best speakers in the world at an amazing price.
These are Giya 1 Series 1 but i replaced the older D26 and D50 tweeters with the newer version used in both the Giya 1 Spirit and Giya 1 Series 2. 
This was a $ 3,000 USD investment that brings these speakers closer to a series 2 level. See pictures of tweeters with new protective mesh vs. older drivers that had no mesh. i can provide copies of this invoice if needed.

Shipping worldwide is about 1.5K to 2.5K depending on location and i can arrange for a specialized company to handle the logistics, point to point with the proper insurance. speakers have their original crates and all packaging material. see serial numbers in the last 2 photos of the listing.

i am selling these speakers since i recently upgraded to the Giya 1 Spirit.

INSPIRED BY NATURE. PERFECTED BY ENGINEERS.
 Nature dislikes straight lines almost as much as she abhors a vacuum. She knows that sound travels much more smoothly over curved surfaces; hence the shape of your own ear. Odd, then, that the standard loudspeaker design is still, by and large, a rectangular box. All those sharp edges and right angles produce reflections and resonances – the true enemies of recorded music. Because what you’re hearing isn’t the real performance: it’s a version of it, overlaid with colours and textures the writer and performer never intended. If you want to hear the real thing, you need the GIYA G1.
 
TAKING YOU DEEPER INTO THE MUSIC
There’s not a single straight line in the G1 loudspeaker’s enclosure. Ergo, no reflections, no resonances: just clear, uncoloured, uncluttered sound, where you can hear every note, word, breath and silence precisely as it was laid down. Music you’ve known and loved for years takes on new life, depth and clarity; it’s like hearing it for the first time, reminding you why you fell in love with it. The G1 has always demanded an opinion; but when you hear it, prepare to find yourself asking not ‘why does it look like that? but ‘why doesn’t everything else?
 
NATURAL THROUGH AND THROUGH
Sheets of wood are easy to cut, handle and join, which is why loudspeaker makers love them. And they’re perfectly fine if you just want to make rectangular boxes. Which we don’t, for reasons already explained. So instead, the G1 enclosure is handmade from a glass-reinforced composite sandwich, with a core layer of end-grain balsa wood. This allows us to create the curved planes and angle-free internal spaces that prevent reflections and resonances. Not the quickest or easiest way to make cabinets, but the only way to achieve the unique GIYA listening experience.
