Why We Changed Our Name to Fortis Audio When our company officially moved to Nashville in 2007, we proudly became Nashville HiFi, a name that reflected our deep connection to Music City and our focus on high-fidelity sound. As we have grown over the years, our mission and reach have evolved significantly. While Nashville remains our home, we now guide clients through high-end custom installations and in-home consultations across the entire USA. To reflect this nationwide vision and the uncompromising quality of the systems we design, we chose a new name: Fortis Audio. The word Fortis is Latin for "strong," "powerful," and "vigorous." This name was carefully selected to represent: Our Strength in Custom Design: It embodies the robust, powerful performance of the elite audio systems we specialize in—from sophisticated two-channel stereo to immersive home theaters. Our Expanded Focus: It signals our brand's maturity, moving beyond a local retail presence to a national resource for unparalleled audio solutions and consultation services. Our Commitment: It reinforces our vigorous pursuit of the best products and our dedication to delivering the highest level of craftsmanship and customer service in the industry. While our name has changed, our dedicated team, our commitment to superior audio products, and our passion for creating exceptional listening experiences remain stronger than ever. Fortis Audio is the evolution of a legacy—a powerful name for a powerful sound.
