The Beginning of the End, “Funky Nassau”

I was at the local Walmart today and noticed that it caries certain record albums.  The albums all claimed to have some enhanced features for improved sound.  I suppose that most of the people purchasing records now are seeking superior sound — the average listener is just going to stream — so it makes sense that even at Walmart the offerings cater to discriminating listeners.  I still found that interesting . . at Walmart!
@bob540 Or walmart were exploiting their naive customers notion that records sound better. Even on a Crosley.

Our Walmart STOPPED carrying CD about 18 months ago, I remember creating a thread about it here.
Then about 1 year ago they STARTED carrying lps, very comical actually to me.
And yes most of the albums do have specially enhanced for Walmart claims t them as well.
To be fair prices are reasonable and one day they may actually have something I want.
Well I’ve got my best friend back on the VPI (Sussurro). The other two cartridges will be headed to NY for Peter to look over. Thinking about the Cadenza mono, it should be a good match for the 3D since the whole Cadenza line are the same body/weight? VPI recommends the Bronze.

I reminded again just how good the Sussurro does sound!

Now where are my new lps?
I know the Cadenza Black is/was a tracking demon and never missed a beat while I used it even on some very slightly warped albums.
Tracking was best at 2.1g if I remember correctly.
