GIYA G2
GIYA RANGE
INSPIRED BY NATURE,
FORMED BY SOUND
EFFORTLESS, TRANSPARENT SOUND FROM THE WORLD’S MOST
RECOGNISABLE LOUDSPEAKERS
We’re guessing you’ve never seen speakers like them; and you’ve definitely never heard speakers like them. The GIYA range is a direct, deliberate challenge to every aesthetic and acoustic convention. But it’s a rebel with a cause: there’s a cool, precise engineering logic behind every line and detail. And if you can’t take your eyes off them, imagine the effect on your ears. Massive, room-filling yet amazingly laid-back sound, revealing hidden subtleties and nuances in the music you love most. Embrace the extraordinary.
THE ULTIMATE EXPERIENCE
Our flagship GIYA range is the choice of committed audiophiles and connoisseurs worldwide. The radical shape is defined by proven acoustic principles taken to their logical conclusions, untethered by conventional wisdom and construction techniques. Every element of the design is the products of pioneering innovation, from our patented hand-built drive units to our advanced vacuum infused composite enclosure. Every detail has been considered and refined in our relentless quest to eliminate resonances and reflections – and enhance your listening pleasure.
NATURE KNOWS BEST
The purpose of GIYA loudspeakers is simple: to give you the clearest possible window on the music. No distortion or coloration in the sound, nothing to detract from the performance. Perfect clarity and precision in every note and breath. Even tracks you’ve heard a million times sound fresh, full of new details to discover and enjoy. Achieving it requires some truly remarkable, patented technology. And its true genius lies in the fact that you’ll scarcely notice it at work.
Reviews
Dec 2021 – Thierry Nkaoua
The editors of French Audiophile Magazine have reviewed several of our models over time. This time it was up to our Giya G2 s2 to convince Thierry Nkaoua.
July 2020 – Doug Schneider
SoundStage! editor Doug Schneider concluded [his] review of the original version with this: “The Giya G2 is not only the best loudspeaker I’ve ever reviewed, it’s the best loudspeaker I’ve ever heard.” Today, I still say the same thing — this time, about the Giya G2 Series 2.”
The G2's sound was highly detailed and the bass was strong.
