hi-fi

High fidelity
High fidelity—or hi-fi or hifi—reproduction is a term used by home stereo listeners and home audio enthusiasts (audiophiles) to refer to high-quality reproduction of sound[1] to distinguish it from the poorer quality sound produced by inexpensive audio equipment, or the inferior quality of sound reproduction that can be heard in recordings made until the late 1940s. Ideally, high-fidelity equipment has minimal amounts of noise and distortion and an accurate frequency response.

    Question Subwoofers - improve midrange?

    Hello For a 2-channel hi-fi, according to a few YouTube videos, the addition of a subwoofer can improve the perceived soundstage/midrange sound quality. Apparently this is due a psychoacoustic effect. Q. Do you have to use bass management to get that effect i.e. you have to remove the bass...

    Question Centre speaker for listening to music

    I have a 2-channel system with the speakers carefully aligned for a good stereo image, and when playing for example, a violin concerto, the soloist is placed firmly just left of centre, surrounded by the orchestra, as I expect to hear from a good seat at a concert. Therefore, I have never felt...
