HiFi Began with Yamaha

Yamaha’s involvement with and passion for music goes back more than a century, to when we built our first reed organ in 1887. Now we are the world’s leading producer of pianos and other musical instruments, and are involved with music in many other ways as well. We manufacture professional recording equipment, we design concert halls and we assist artists at concerts with set up and sound tuning.

This knowledge and experience benefits our production of audio components in many ways. We introduced our first HiFi (High Fidelity) turntable in 1955. Thereafter we were one of the first to offer mass-produced, high quality audio equipment,

and introduced many legendary stereo components.

We hope you enjoy the genuine HiFi experience of Yamaha Natural Sound.

Excellence in Audio Achievement

1922: We introduced a high-quality handwound phonograph.

Since 1955, we have released many HiFi components, including turntables, tuners, integrated amplifiers, control amplifiers, power amplifiers and speakers.
