Dare to discover
-
At HOUCHMAND, we believe that music should evoke the same authentic, genuine and untouched emotions in your home as it did when the music was created by the artist. Time errors or time smearing effects caused by most loudspeakers available today destroy the sound stage of an orchestra, minimize guitar impulses, and reduce the precision of the low frequency range. To prevent these negative time smearing effects, we developed the Purity Path Technology, which combines our high end audio components with a linear phase, a constant group delay and low jitter values.

The puristically elegant silhouette, inspired by the Bauhaus design, is made of the finest materials, which have been used by the jewellery manufacturers of Pforzheim for more than two centuries. Before the metal components are refined with one of four exclusive precious metals, they have to pass an complex polishing process to achieve their mirror-like surface. An equal amount of time and effort is required to coat the speaker cabinets in genuine piano varnish with an unmistakable optical depth effect.
-
In a manufacturing process inspired by the jewellery industry, all metal parts are machined from solid metal and carefully polished to achieve a mirror-like surface. In the final stage, the mirror-like surfaces are refined with 24 ct gold, 18 ct red gold, platinum or ruthenium. The unmistakable silhouette of the speaker cabinets is the result of the hand-applied genuine piano varnish in combination with the precious metal refined components. Each Houchmand Masterpiece audio system is exclusively handcrafted based on your vision in our manufactory in Pforzheim.

To meet our own high standards, every stage of the polishing and painting process had to be optimised. The mirror-like genuine piano varnish of the speaker cabinets is applied by our master craftsman in several layers up to a thickness of about one millimeter — it takes 10 weeks for the varnishing to be done by hand. Due to the time consuming manufacturing process by hand we are only able to create a limited number of Houchmand Masterpieces per year.
System
Audio meets aesthetics. The HOUCHMAND audio system consists of one Monobloc player and two active Speakers. A harmonized system that breaks with everything you've heard so far. The design? Pure. The quality? Outstanding. The audio experience? Exceptional.
The Speakers
Two speakers that seamlessly match their design and acoustic performance to your interior. Selected piano lacquer colors combined with gold or platinum finishes make the HOUCHMAND speaker a work of art in your home ambience.
A detailed and three-dimensional sound stage is achieved by using a special coaxial construction for the midrange-driver and tweeter. The integrated room compensation EQ allows an acoustic adaptation to your individual living space.
The Monobloc
For maximum flexibility, the HOUCHMAND Monobloc player combines the latest digital streaming services with inputs and outputs for your other sources. It connects to the HOUCHMAND speakers via Purity Path Technology — wired or wireless.
In addition to an elegant remote control, HOUCHMAND has developed an easy to use app (iOS® and Android®) which allows you to select all inputs and outputs, use the most popular streaming services, and browse your music collection. The HOUCHMAND Monobloc player supports music streaming through Spotify®, TIDAL®, Qobuz® and Deezer®.
