Why Mono? (vs Stereo; DB TV Audio)

Hey everyone, I have always wondered why DBZ was recorded in mono for so long. I understand the decision earlier on I guess, but how come they never made the switch to stereo?

Because it was 1996?

That makes me wonder when stereo did become standard for animation...

It was probably a big deal, considering many cartoons would have an "In Stereo" caption during the start of theme songs. I think some live-action fantasy shows and game shows did that as well.

The TV that was in my living room until the mid nineties was only mono sound. I guess they figured most people had what I had.

Most did have what you had. It was the nineties.
