Abstract :
Monophonic is the word to use when discussing high fidelity sound, not monaural, accordingto Abraham Schwartzman, executive secretary of the Institute of High Fidelity Manufacturers. He explained that this represents the viewpoint of leading high-fidelity component manufacturers and editorial authorities in the field. Growing public interest in stereophonic sound reproduction is one reason for the Institute´s desire to use uniform terms in order to minimize possible confusion.
