JVC HA-S100N headphones

JVC, short for Victor Company of Japan, is a legendary brand in the world of consumer electronics, founded in Yokohama, Japan, in 1927. Originally a subsidiary of the American Victor Talking Machine Company, it eventually became a powerhouse in video and audio technology, famously developing the VHS format. The HA-S100N model represents their modern line of hybrid noise-cancelling audio equipment.

Today, JVC is part of JVCKENWOOD Corporation, which was formed through the merger of JVC and Kenwood in 2008. While the brand maintains its Japanese heritage and engineering standards, the manufacturing of high-volume consumer goods like these headphones is primarily conducted in China and other Southeast Asian manufacturing hubs to optimize global supply chains. The ultimate ownership resides with JVCKENWOOD Corporation, headquartered in Yokohama, Japan.
