Please explain what you mean by "audio files".   Are these MP3
files?  That's pretty much the standard, so I'll assume that that's what
you meant.

If that's the case then they will play on any MP3 player.  Looking around
at the different players in my house, I can play MP3 files on my DVD
player, the CD player in my car, and on my wife's portable CD player/radio.
 MP3's will not play on the CD player in my entertainment center, nor will
they play on my old DVD player.

What is the model number of the SONY "Hi-Fi" you're dealing with?
 When was it purchased?
