Culturedog Sam Hatch has returned with a small series of videos hashing out the convoluted history of the audio portion of LaserDisc history. Analog, digital, mono, stereo, surround, Pro-Logic, AC-3, Dolby Digital, DTS… all those confusing acronyms and output jacks… all will be broken down and explained.

In this second video, Sam digs into the onset and evolution of LD matrixed surround sound audio, how it works and what you might need to actually listen to it. The primary focus of this discussion is on Dolby Surround, Dolby Labs’ “Pro-Logic” decoding method and the consumer-grade gear that featured it.

Strap in and crank it up!
