About Fulton Musical Industries

Fulton Musical Industries (FMI), founded by Robert W. Fulton in the mid-1970s, was a pioneering American HiFi audio company recognized for its natural-sounding loudspeakers and early innovations in audio cables and interconnects. Fulton's approach involved extensive involvement across the audio reproduction chain, from recording to speaker design. Despite a relatively brief corporate lifespan prior to Fulton's death in 1988, the company left a lasting legacy in audiophile circles, particularly for its speaker systems and dedication to realistic sound reproduction. The brand is noted for its influence on perceptions of cable audibility and full-chain system synergy in HiFi audio.
