With the G4 loudspeaker, you can enjoy the authentic GIYA sound and aesthetic in even the smallest space. We’ve taken the same world-class technology you’ll find in our larger GIYA loudspeakers and meticulously housed it in an enclosure just one metre high. The result is a loudspeaker with real character and presence, that delivers power and performance far beyond its modest dimensions. The true GIYA listening experience: condensed, not compromised.
THE DRIVE FOR PERFECTION
Despite its modest dimensions, the GIYA G4 is a true four-way loudspeaker, with five drivers all designed and made entirely in-house. The C100S low mid-range and twin C125L bass drivers are specially designed to produce the maximum output from their compact cones and chassis. High and mid frequencies are handled by the same D26 and D50 drivers, with our patented Tapered Tube loading, as the rest of the GIYA family. The transparent, accurate and wholly natural sound is everything you’d expect: what might surprise you is the sheer weight and power of that sound.
BASS ON A DIFFERENT SCALE
The bass performance of a loudspeaker is a function of cabinet volume and driver dimensions. Yet even as the smallest member of the GIYA family, the G4 produces bass with astonishing weight and power. If you want a bass you can feel, and that will wake up the neighbours and shake pictures off the wall, the G4 will deliver; no problem. But there’s more to bass than just how loud it is. The G4 produces the same incredibly tight, articulate bass, free from distortion and blurring, as the other GIYA models – and so effortlessly and naturally that you can listen for as long as you like without fatigue.
NO STRAIGHT LINES, HARD EDGES OR ANGLES
With the GIYA G4, having a small space is no barrier to enjoying your favourite music in all its depth, detail and emotional power. The GIYA philosophy is to provide the clearest window on the performance. The G4’s distinctive enclosure, made from a GRP-and-balsa-wood composite sandwich, is designed to eliminate the reflections and resonances that cloud and colour the music. No straight lines, hard edges or angles: just the same smooth curves you find in nature, allowing the sound to travel cleanly and uninterrupted.
