Nikko was a Japanese hi-fi maker whose components were sold from the late 1960s to the early 1990s, best known for its Alpha power amplifiers and Beta preamplifiers. The brand no longer exists. We carry Nikko power amplifiers, preamplifiers, stereo receivers, tuners and equalizers. We’ve had more than 35 Nikko listings so far. Every used Nikko here is inspected, tested and serviced as required, then photographed in-house and covered by our Bumper-to-Bumper Warranty and Perpetual Trade-Back Program.

The Nikko story

One of Nikko’s first hi-fi products was the TRM-50 integrated amplifier of September 1969, and its STA receivers and FAM tuners followed in the early 1970s.

The Professional Series. From 1977 Nikko sold Alpha power amplifiers and Beta preamplifiers, designed to be paired, alongside NR receivers, Gamma and NT tuners and EQ graphic equalizers.

The end. The last Alpha models date from 1988 to 1991, and Nikko hi-fi ended in the early 1990s. It has no connection with Nikko, the radio-control toy maker.
