Audio-Technica

Audio-Technica born in the heart of Tokyo in 1962, a small audio company began with a simple yet powerful mission: to bring high-fidelity sound to everyone. Inspired by the joy of shared listening experiences, the brand introduced its first breakthrough — an affordable phono cartridge that made high-quality vinyl playback accessible beyond the realm of expensive audio systems. From those early days in a modest Shinjuku flat, the company’s dedication to innovation and sound precision laid the foundation for a legacy in the world of audio technology.

Over the decades, this passion for pure listening evolved into a diverse range of critically acclaimed products, including headphones, turntables, and microphones, each crafted with the same commitment to exceptional audio performance. Remaining true to its founding belief that premium sound should be within reach of all, the brand continues to blend cutting-edge engineering with timeless design. Whether at home, in the studio, or on stage, its products deliver immersive sound experiences that connect listeners to music in its truest form.
