Giya G1 Spirit

Introduced 2017$105,550 MSRP

The Giya G1 Spirit is Vivid Audio's South African-designed flagship loudspeaker, instantly recognizable for its organic, curved fiberglass-composite cabinet with tapered-tube-loaded dome drivers derived from the brand's B&W Nautilus heritage (source: [Vivid Audio official](https://vividaudio.com/giya/giya-g1-spirit/), [The Absolute Sound](https://www.theabsolutesound.com/articles/vivid-audio-giya-g1-spirit-loudspeaker/)). The Spirit update over the original G1 added a new lower-midrange driver and an external crossover housed in its own rounded enclosure, along with a substantial price increase reflecting the redesign (source: [Stereophile](https://www.stereophile.com/content/vivid-audio-giya-g1-spirit-loudspeaker)).
