Anyone hear Vivid Audio Speakers? Considering Vivid Giya G1 Series 2 from Magico S5 MKII

Have new pair of Magico S5 MK II and have had Magico for a long time. I love them but considering trying either Giya G1 Series 2 or YG Acoustics Hailey 2.2 from my Magico's. Curious to hear from anyone that has head

Its really about personal preference. To my ears the "system" I heard the Giya's in were musical, detailed, and had a very open spacious sound. To date one of the better systems I've ever heard.

It comes down to preference, the room, and other components in the system. I would love to hear my speakers with Solution and Constellation components(amp & preamp).

I heard them being driven by the Gryphon Class A stereo amplifier. It was being played at above average volumes and at medium volume. They sound great no matter what and I didn't hear any driver breakups. Years ago I had a pair of Wison Audio Sophia 2s that cracked, it was an anomaly. It's possible that one person could have a problem with any component, but it may just be an isolated case.
