"It's hard to stress just how well the Giya G1 addresses the problems that usually afllict loudspeakers, it manages to seemingly eliminate perceived distortion and reveal the music in all its dynamic, tonal and temporal glory." Jason Kennedy (HiFi+ Issue 70 - UK)

"Breathtaking transparency, superlative coherence, dizzying speed and an unyielding musicality." David Price, Hi FI WORLD

"It is the Giya's G1 sound that steals the show, conveying music with obvious neutrality, an unadorned midrange, quick transients, and deep, powerful low frequencies." Mark Mickelson (The Audio Beat February 2010 - USA)

"It is always nice to come across a new brand that really offers something both fresh and interesting. In doing this, Vivid Audio has come up with a product that is as good as the very best in the class. We can’t wait to hear the rest of the range. (Vivid V1.5)" What Hi Fi (UK)

"Is Vivid Audio's Giya G1 the best loudspeaker I've ever heard ? Yes. And it will be my yardstick from now on." Wes Philips (Stereophile July 2010 - USA)

"We listened. At the end of a jazz piece, the first row of listeners broke into applause and shouted praise. The sound of the Giya was immediate and detailed. Louis Armstrong's voice was full of grit and lungs and throat, and seemed enormous." Stereophile
