Esprit Cables

Pranawire Cloud 9 picture is from Audio Exotics.
I’m sure Cloud 9 will be available with schuko outlets but in the meantime, this unit is the only one i’ve seen until now.
Yes as PRANAWIRE importer, I know that Cloud 9 is only in Bocchino US outlets. So people should use US mal cables. Not interesting in Europe.
 
Stumbled across the Chinese Nova review in case anyone is interested, I'm providing a machine translation into English.

Running in the Eterna power cord, it replaces a SR Euphoria HC. (I'm powering the amp)
Quite a difference, I'm pleased!

Planning to upgrade PCs in my music server room. The LPS and Power Conditioner PCs to Esprit cables. Music room already already has full Esprit loom, but the SERVER room has been neglected. The Power Conditioner and LPS are both using Shunyata's (Venom V10). Curious if anyone has upgraded from the Shunyatas to the Esprit and what the result was?

I would guess even the Esprit Celesta would be a step up from the Shunyata Venom?
Did you upgrade the cords for your networking equipment?
 
Hello, it would be very interesting if you could tell us the differences between the SR Euphoria and Esprit Eterna cables.

Thank you very much

I used Euphoria High Current and Esprit Eterna on my amplifier.

The Euphoria High Current cable had denser mids. sounded veiled.
I felt less of the lower bass frequencies. Overall the cable made my music feel slower.
Singer image felt deeper backwards.

Kindly note the following:
I did not use any of the bullets - the Ground, Silver/Gold tuning. I felt these were more detrimental than improving.
The Silver/Gold tuning bullets made my image feel artificial, the Ground bullet reduced the air/depth sensation in the image.
I have two other Synergistic Research cables, the Foundation & Alive.
The Synergistic Research Alive & Euphoria High Current had Gold (plated) NEMA receptacle & connector

The Esprit Eterna had the clarity, details. The bass frequencies played lower. It felt faster.
There was more details in the highs too.
The Esprit Eterna had Silver (plated) NEMA receptacle and silver (plated) connector
(When I plugged in the SR Euphoria to my Lumin streamer, the bass signature changed to Euphoria. Less of lower sub bass)

Thank you very much for your attention and testimony, it helped a lot.
 
In my experience the esprit cables are in a level of their own.
Just upgraded my eureka to gaja cables , and the jump in performance is just amazing.
agreed, I have 1 eureka in my system after upgrading to all Gaia, pretty amazing cable

Congratulations.

One question. I have all Eureka (IC and speaker cable) and I love it. What is the difference when going to Gaia? I always think that it can bring more resolution, but maybe losing natural sound of the Eureka?

Congratulations, Ozy. Some years ago, I have started with all cables in my system being Eureka and the result was absolutely great. Then all was replaced with Gaia which kept the same musicality but with notably more detailed and airy (in a good way) presentation. Now I have the entire system wired with L'Esprit.

I noticed that as you move from model to model , upwardly, all the esprit characteristics become more and more of.
Moving from the lumina to eureka was a big step, and even more so now with the gaja.
