This would be interesting for a few reasons. The B1 is long in the tooth by speaker standards so it makes sense to update, maybe with new cross-over? However, the B1, and even more so the K1, seem superfluous in the Vivid line-up from a performance/room size standpoint. The oval v1.5 and the Giya 4 through 1 seem to have it covered. The B1 uses 4 drivers and the K1 uses six drivers compared to the Giya's 5. They all use pretty much the same drivers and the enclosures can't cost that much more to manufacture.
