shop=hifi has almost 6000 uses, so it must fill a need for some people. http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/shop=hifi
If hifi is too specific for you, you could always use shop=electronics. Also, there is this note on the hifi wiki page regarding hifi vs. electronics: "The suggested distinction is that a shop=electronics shop is "primarily focused on consumer electronics, and may sell hi-fi components, but is not focused on them and not a meeting point for audiophiles", However that's quite a subtle and subjective distinction, and something which may be better represented as a property tag of a shop=electronics" (side note: looking at a random assortment in the UK, I do see some "hifi" that might be mistagged--for example, I'd expect HMV to be tagged as shop=music not shop=hifi?)
