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.
