BIC America was originally founded in 1950 as British Industries Corporation, initially importing high-end British audio products including Garrard turntables, Luxman electronics, and Wharfedale speakers. Headquartered in Anaheim, California (925 N. Shepard St., CA 92806), BIC achieved significant milestones in 1973 by introducing the first belt drive turntables and launching their own loudspeaker brand. The company holds the patent for the famous 'Venturi Port' design, developed in 1973. BIC reached its peak in the mid-1970s as a top-selling audio brand in America. After the founder's death, the company was sold but was later repurchased in 1988. Today, BIC America continues to specialize in loudspeakers, turntables, and audio components, maintaining their philosophy of delivering audiophile-grade performance at affordable prices. The company provides customer support through their website contact form and toll-free number, serving audio enthusiasts who seek high-quality sound without premium pricing. BIC America's legacy spans over 70 years of audio innovation and accessibility.
