Hi-Fi System Market Restraints:

• Energy Consumption

Electricity has been facing a constant global demand, and countries have been finding it difficult to keep up with this energy demand. The energy consumption for standby devices has been a major concern for governments worldwide. According to the European Commission, European citizens pay almost EU€ 15 billion (US$ 15.81 billion) for standby electricity consumption of devices such as TVs, DVDs, Hi-Fi systems, modems, etc. Hi-Fi systems have been known to consume about 26 kWh on standby annually. With this increasing standby consumption, it becomes difficult for energy companies to keep up with the demand. With this increasing energy consumption and the increasing electricity prices, the Hi-Fi system market may face a decrease in demand.
