Punch Audio Portazo
Bass Powerhouse Meets Ultra-Clear Trebles
The Punch Audio Portazo is a bass monster, featuring a thunderous 15dB sub-bass output that reverberates even the deepest of notes. Designed specifically for bassheads, the Portazo delivers a punishingly powerful bass slam. But with a precisely tuned treble and ultra-treble extension, the overall sound signature is crisp and clean, providing ample headroom in the soundstage.
Next Generation Composite Dynamic Driver
The key to the Portazo’s quality bass is in thanks to its new composite diaphragm. With a suspension ring made from liquid silicone and a separate liquid crystal polymer (LCP) dome, this dual-material diaphragm allows the perfect mix in rumble and clarity. The difference in responsiveness across the two surface membranes allows each tonal characteristic to present itself across the frequency spectrum.
Custom Dual Planar Magnetic Drivers
The Portazo presents a life-like soundstage with pristine highs, due to its new dual planar magnetic tweeters. With extreme transients and speed, these planar tweeters effectively extend the ultra-high treble range to 35kHz, outperforming performances from traditional drivers.
Meaty, Yet Precise Tuning
Although the Portazo is a basshead IEM, its tuning was carefully and elaborately engineered. The sub-bass is extended by 15dB from 20Hz to 400Hz for powerful lows and full low-mids. This provides ample body to bass guitar and male vocals. However, the midrange from 400Hz to 1kHz is maintained at a steady neutrality, preventing the overall sound from feeling muddy or bloated, and providing a natural accuracy to instruments. The treble peaks precisely at 3kHz for a clean bite and presence in vocals, while a carefully tuned treble decay maintains micro-details without shrillness. The ultra-treble range is fully extended, allowing plenty of air and headroom in the soundstage.
Handcrafted Care
Every Portazo unit is handcrafted, from its resin shell and faceplate, to its driver assembly. Each driver is individually measured and paired to ensure channel matching, while a final assembly measurement ensures quality for each unit.
Custom Cable
The Portazo comes with a detachable 2-pin 0.78mm cable system with modular plugs. Composed of 4 cores of ultra-pure oxygen free copper strands, the cable allows microphonics-free audio transmission.The modular plug system allows users to use either 3.5mm unbalanced or 4.4mm balanced connectors for compatibility with any audio device. The 2-pin connectors allow users to detach and pair the Portazo with any other 2-pin cable, allowing customizability in the sound and overall longevity of the IEM.
Suggested Usage Scenario
The Portazo is designed for bass enthusiasts, delivering powerful lows that make it ideal for genres with strong bass presence, such as hip-hop, pop, and EDM. Its enhanced bass response also makes it perfect for stage musicians, including drummers and bass guitarists, as well as for anyone who enjoys deep, punchy sound during their daily commute.
