Richard Cesari describes the work as testing, listening and starting again, because changing one detail in a Ethernet cable moves the whole balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eEsprit L'Esprit Audiophile Ethernet Cable\u003c\/strong\u003e is an RJ45 network cable from Esprit's L'Esprit range. Each L'Esprit Ethernet cable is made by hand in Confolens, in France's Charente region, in 1.2, 2.2 and 3.2 m. Like every current Esprit cable, the L'Esprit Ethernet cable belongs to Generation 10.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThirty years in one range\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEsprit reserves its most ambitious language for the L'Esprit Ethernet cable, calling the range the supreme incarnation of musical emotion, the one that carries the soul closest to the absolute. Thirty years of experience, research, tuning and listening tests culminate in L'Esprit, and the company says the L'Esprit Ethernet cable concentrates every one of its developments. Every improvement in the other Esprit ranges begins with the research done for L'Esprit, which the brand calls both the source and the synthesis of its work, and the L'Esprit Ethernet cable is where that research lives in full.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMade by hand in Confolens\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEsprit's team designs and assembles the L'Esprit Ethernet cable by hand in its workshop in Confolens, Charente. Richard Cesari insists that assembly counts as much as materials, so each L'Esprit Ethernet cable is checked at every stage of the work. The first complete check of the L'Esprit Ethernet cable is made by the person who built it, and nothing moves on until it has been validated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe sound, in Esprit's words\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEsprit speaks of the L'Esprit Ethernet cable in terms of emotion rather than measurement, describing each note as a pure moment of ever-renewed musicality. For Richard Cesari, the goal of all this work comes down to one word, music, and the L'Esprit Ethernet cable is where Esprit pursues it furthest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor Esprit, a cable such as the L'Esprit Ethernet cable should simply let the system express what it can do. A well-designed cable cannot be heard, Richard Cesari says, and that is the standard the L'Esprit Ethernet cable is held to. Esprit notes that phono, line-level, digital and mains links each face different constraints, so the protection of the L'Esprit Ethernet cable is adapted to its use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your Ethernet cable\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe L'Esprit Ethernet cable is level 9 of 9, the summit of the catalog above Gaia.
