Esprit High End Audio will introduce its new Generation X cable generation at High End Vienna 2026. The launch gives the French manufacturer a product-led presence at the show, centred on a revised cable range rather than a single accessory or system demonstration.
Esprit High End Audio is a French manufacturer of high-end audio cables and loudspeakers. Its previous Generation 9 range is described in the submitted preview as the basis for five further years of development before the move to Generation X.
The Hifi Pig preview describes three main areas of change for the new range: dielectric architecture, connector construction and shielding. It also says Esprit plans to demonstrate its LISA loudspeakers in a reference system wired with Generation X cables.
