The Giya G3 is certainly a nice speaker. How much nicer than the Oval K1 I can
not say as I have never heard the K1s.
I should also say that IMO the Giya G3 is not worth it retail price of 28k euros. I
had the Giya G3 in my system for a week and I was very surprised to see/hear
that my Avantgarde UNO G2 speakers (retailing at 16k euros) bested them in so
many areas.
As this is not a thread about Avantgarde UNO speakers, I will only say that,
unlike the UNOs, the Giya G3s need to be played loud (i.e. 75 dB or more) to
develop decent bass, soundstage and stereo image. This was a deal breaker for
me as most of my listen session are between 60 and 75 dB.
