High fidelity or hi-fi reproduction is a quality standard that means the reproduction of sound or images is very faithful to the original. High fidelity aims to achieve minimal or unnoticeable amounts of noise and distortion. The term high fidelity tends to be applied to any reasonable-quality home-music system, though some believe that a higher standard than this is intended, and in 1973, the German Deutsches Institut für Normung (DIN) standard DIN 45500 laid down mimimum requirements for measurements of frequency response, distortion, noise and other defects and gained some recognition in hi-fi magazines.
High-fidelity enthusiasts are often known as audiophiles. The equipment they prefer is often termed "high end."
History
The 1920s saw the introduction of electronic amplification, microphones, and the application of quantitative engineering principles to the reproduction of sound. Much of the pioneering work was done at Bell Laboratories and commercialized by Western Electric. Acoustically-recorded disc records with capriciously peaky frequency response were replaced with electrically-recorded records. The Victor Orthophonic phonograph, although purely acoustic, was created by engineers who applied waveguide technology to the design of the interior folded horn to produce a smooth frequency response which complemented and equalled that of the electrically-recorded Victor Orthophonic records.
