Houchmand M1 Audio System Shines at High End Show 2025 Munich

The Houchmand M1 Audio System is poised to make a significant impact at the High End Show 2025 in Munich this May. This sophisticated setup integrates a central streaming and DAC unit with a pair of active floor-standing speakers, and offers an optional active subwoofer, the Houchmand S1. Crafted with precision in Germany, the M1 system emphasizes both performance and aesthetic versatility, catering to audiophiles who demand excellence in sound and design.

A notable feature of the M1 system is its high-end material finish, available in 24-karat gold, 18-karat rose gold, platinum, and ruthenium. Additionally, custom RAL and NCS colors are supported, allowing seamless integration into various interior design schemes. The central unit, weighing 11 kilograms, serves dual functions as a network streamer and a digital-to-analog converter. It supports streaming from major services including Spotify, TIDAL, Qobuz, and Deezer, with wired streaming capabilities up to 24-bit/192 kHz and Wi-Fi streaming up to 24-bit/96 kHz.

The active speakers are designed as three-way floor-standing models, each measuring 103 x 19 x 25 cm. They feature a coaxial driver for the midrange and tweeter, delivering clear and precise sound reproduction. The optional Houchmand S1 subwoofer enhances the low-frequency response, supporting both analog and digital inputs to provide a more immersive audio experience. The system employs Houchmand’s proprietary “Clean Path Technology,” which ensures minimal signal degradation and maintains integrity between the central unit and the speakers.

Technical enthusiasts will appreciate the built-in room correction feature, which adjusts playback to the acoustic environment, optimizing sound quality for any listening space. Control is managed via Houchmand’s mobile app, available on both iOS and Android platforms, offering intuitive management of the system’s settings and streaming options.

Pricing for the Houchmand M1 system starts at €58,500 for the base configuration, which includes the central unit, two active speakers, and a remote control. Adding the Houchmand S1 subwoofer brings the total investment to €78,000. As the High End Show 2025 approaches, further technical specifications and performance details are expected to be unveiled, promising to solidify the M1’s position in the ultra-high-end audio market.
