Earlier on i said i was going to go downstairs to wash the pots........and was going to put a cd on the "hifi"

Now that word......hifi conjures up the early 80s to me :D

 

Am i really stuck in the 80's?

Is HiFi still the correct term?

if not whats the alternative?

 

alternatives i can thing of are

midi / mini etc (although mine are seperates not midi system)

Music System

Stereogram (lol, so 70's)

It wouldn't surprise me in the least....i still wouldn't care though.

 

 

Adding non-related is an indication it's not a "highly interesting question". :P

I grew up calling it 'the stereo', because we all had one of those integrated whatsits.

 

Thinking about it, I haven't used that term in years. I'd probably say 'I'm going to put some music on', or 'I'm going to put a CD on'. I might say 'turn the amp on/off', because I have a few music devices going through that.

 

I don't really have a collective term for it any more.
