Houchmand

Founded by Marco Houchmand, a sound visionary described as the son of a ceramist and acoustic engineer, HOUCHMAND represents luxury German hi-fi craftsmanship at its finest. Based in Mühlacker, Baden-Württemberg with manufacturing in Pforzheim, the company officially operates as 'Marco Houchmand Entwicklung von Tongeräten und Dienstleistungen' (Development of Audio Equipment and Services). Located at Keplerstr. 11, Mühlacker, the company specializes in holistic audio systems with the highest standards in sound, quality, and design. Each HOUCHMAND Masterpiece is exclusively handcrafted in their Pforzheim manufactory, drawing inspiration from Bauhaus design principles and utilizing finest materials traditionally used by Pforzheim's jewelry manufacturers for over two centuries. The luxury hi-fi system consists of a streamer connected to two active speakers with integrated DSP and one Monobloc player, featuring special coaxial construction and Purity Path Technology that combines high-end components with linear phase, constant group delay, and low jitter values. The manufacturing process is extraordinarily time-intensive, with mirror-like genuine piano varnish applied in several hand-crafted layers taking 10 weeks to complete, limiting production to a select number of systems annually. Premium finishes include 24ct gold and platinum options, supporting major streaming services including Spotify, TIDAL, Qobuz, and Deezer.
