TEAC was founded in 1953 by a young Japanese engineer Katsuma Tani, who in 1939 designed the first cassette recorder with the ability to record on tape. This determined the profile of an innovative company, which employed real enthusiasts. At first, the company's name was longer - Tokyo Television Acoustic Company, but in 1962 it was changed to the one that is familiar to us. Already in 1964, the TEAC corporation of companies was born, after which the network of divisions around the world began to grow. Now the name TEAC is firmly associated with quality and unique solutions that have never been seen before.
