Although there are various sources of music, hi-fi systems is one of the sources that gives out music in its original format without distortion.

Hi-Fi or High Fidelity is the term used to refer to high quality reproduction of sound and images without noise or distortion as put forward by DIN 45500 standards in 1970s. Initially the term hi-fi was used to refer to any audio source that produced shrillest sound quality. One main benefit of hi-fi systems is its cheaper quality when compared to home theatre systems.
