High fidelity or hi-fi reproduction is a term used by home stereo listeners and home audio enthusiasts (audiophiles) to refer to high-quality reproduction of sound or images that are very faithful to the original performance. Ideally, high-fidelity equipment has minimal amounts of noise and distortion and an accurate frequency response as set out in 1973 by the German Deutsches Institut für Normung (DIN) standard DIN 45500. This standard was well intentioned, but only mildly successful in defining 'high-fidelity'. DIN 45 500 approval provided audio equipment buyers with reassurance that their equipment was capable of good quality reproduction. In theory, only stereo equipment that met the standard could bear the words 'hi-fi', but in practice, the term was widely misapplied to audio products that did not remotely approach the DIN basis specifications. By the 1990s, the term hi-fi for expensive high-quality home-audio electronics was largely replaced with high-end audio. From Wikipedia under the

I don't quite understand why there are still tape players on mini systems that are brand new when the tape playing format is pretty much defunct. Is it a requirement by manufacturers to do this? Asked by Wassup my homie? - Mon Jun 11 01:01:27 2007 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. Many people still have cassettes and don't want to replace all their music. Also, many portable cassette recorders are being used to tape classes and that sort of thing and then they can be replayed on the hifi mini systems.

Q. I last bought one in 1993, and it was hard then to find one with this feature. I have a very good audio system, and I want to incorporate a new Tv in this, not have it as a stand alone or "home theatre system" . Also, the output from the Tv needs to be via phono leads Asked by zorro2209 - Fri Jan 11 19:10:06 2008 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. Yes, my friend has a 37" vizio flatscreen lcd with the standard red/white rca sockets. Before you buy in store, you should be able to view any tv's complete specs online, including input/output sockets. Hope that helps.
