Jake Purches of Vivid Audio UK got in touch to tell us about what they have in store for Whittlebury visitors this year: “We are showing just two loudspeakers from the Vivid range. The V1 (used to be V1.5) which is the entry level loudspeaker at £6500, a two way speaker based on the same principles as the Giya speakers, using exactly the same drivers. The second is the new B1 decade loudspeaker at £18000 limited to 200 pairs. Whilst similar to the B1, it uses bass drivers with Giya motor systems and new mid and tweeter domes protected by ‘spiderman’ grilles, and a new cabinet made from the thin film advanced vacuum infused composite construction used on the Giya series. The B1 Decade is the nearest to a true Giya but in an Oval wrapping. They will be demonstrated using AVM electronics from Germany.”
Vivid will also be featuring the talents of Rachel Collis, an Australian singer songwriter of the folk/pop genre.
Vivid will be launching a special edition of Rachel Collis’s Nightlife on DVD Music format, in 24 bit 96 khz from the studio masters.
