What does STEREO mean in Scrabble?
noun
A sound system, or a method of sound recording and reproduction, that uses two or more separate channels to create a sense of directional depth.
A stereo reproduces sound through at least two speakers fed by separate channels, so that listeners perceive instruments and voices as coming from different positions rather than a single point, unlike older mono recordings. The word shortens stereophonic and can refer either to the recording technique itself or, informally, to the piece of equipment that plays such recordings at home or in a car.

Common word for both the recording technology and, informally, for a home or car sound system.
