Summary:

Kyocera Corporation Kyoto
Multinational manufacturer based in Kyoto, Japan. It was founded as Kyoto Ceramic Co., Ltd. in 1959 by Kazuo Inamori and renamed to Kyocera Corporation in 1982.

In the 1980s, Kyocera marketed audio components, such as CD players, receivers, turntables, and cassette decks. These featured unique elements, including Kyocera ceramic-based platforms, and are sought by collectors to the present day. At one time, Kyocera owned the famous KLH brand founded by Henry Kloss, though Kloss and the original Cambridge design and engineering staff had left the company by the time of the Kyocera purchase. In 1989, Kyocera stopped production of audio components and sought a buyer for the KLH brand.
