Mid-Fi: A largely meaningless, murky term. It means “less than hi-fi,” but sometimes that's again indicative of personal preference. It's one thing to use this to describe overt sound quality flaws…but more often it's used as a personal insult, especially on forums. (I did not write this definition, but I agree with it)
HiFi vs MidFi
I’m a relative noob to the audiophile scene, having just invested in an integrated amp and upscale (for me) speakers. From time to time, I hear the term “MidFi” for some components. Is there an objective or just largely accepted definition for this term? I’d be curious to hear feedback on what constitutes HiFi vs. MidFi across various components.
