Hi all, you can get about the effect as Cryoed treatments by putting your cables or components in the Freezer for 24 hours and then put them in the refrigerator for one or two hours.........this REALLY works!!! Try this with the cables you have now.......Try this for yourself and see if you "hear a difference"............Richard
I can beat that Richard I spend the the last 72 hours chillin in my deepfreeze in wet clothing! Froze my ass through and through! Boy does my system sound better than ever! The mids are so transparent you almost cannot hear them! The only problem is i lost most of my fingers due to frostbite, so i have a hard time with the remotes.
Hey Slappy, since you lost those fingers in the cryo experiment, you are now a member of a protected class. Maybe have some money coming your way via a lawsuit against the folks at Westinghouse for not CLEARLY posting a warning on the unit cautioning you not to enter the appliance while wearing wet clothing. If they reject your claim, you can file additional legal action as their denial of your victimhood has resulted in a decrease in your self-esteem.
Slappy, What where you thinking? As your already Women-less! I guess your Freezer experiment now puts a real damper on your Midnight Performance Grip, now that your Finger-less too! ;0)~
You all are coming up with some great Ideas, keep it up. I thought I put that Mi-Roller review over here, these are really good Isolation Feet and are even better after you freeze them! There right up there with the best!http://www.enjoythemusic.com/magazine/equipment/1004/mirollers.htm
Freeze your baseball cap and marinate it with sugar the sound is sweeter,and more liquid.Just wear the cap while its still wet and cold.If possible, get a cold shower,while standing on a cryod diamond racing cone.Then sit on a bucket of ice, your system will sound more cooler and natural.
Rpatrick thinks all summer about what his Masters thesis should be. Comes up with something along the lines of "Gullibility & civility of message board readers" or, perhaps, "Gullibility & civility of audiophiles" and crafts an experiment of posting some made up goofiness on various web sites and then studies the responses, sees how many bite, etc. Posts similar things in various forums to build buzz and/or lend credence to initial goofiness or to see if one board's denizens are more gullible than another's. Maybe does this in several subject areas - tests audiophiles versus videophiles versus Kerry supporters versus Bush supporters.
Timing is right starts posting here in August when he gets back to school. Timing is right for the swift boat boys and fake national guard documents as well. Hmmm.
Everyone that has responded...web lab rats.
Now, back to the music. In the words of Tonio K: "Just because we're hypnotized, that don't mean we can't dance".
Wstritt, Finally, someone has caught on. I would suggest that you visit my posts as well as those of Slappy. I feel that we have posted appropriately given the nature of the "thesis".
The Football games are a lot more enjoyable now, after I froze my LNB off of my satellite dish and my satellite receiver and RF satellite cable and froze my circuit boards out of my TV, Wow, what a difference this makes, you have to see it to believe it!!...........Richard
Okay, Richard. Now fess up. This whole thread you started was just a joke, wasn't it? You crazy guy. Now stop it and start writing about something "real".
Hi all, Kevin R Holt, a member over at www.hometheatertalk.com tried my Freezer Tweak, the test results are in!, everybody, come over and check it out...........Richard
Tell ya what, with remarks ranging from Dubious, to skeptical, to "Yer a goddamn idiot richard", i gotta say one thing on Richard's behalf is he has taken all the various responces very well.
Thick skin richard! Its good to see somone who doesent start screaming and crying the second somone else thinks they are a crack-pot!
Just please tell me that GOD diddnt show you this method.
So you all have a nick name for me already!! I am "amazed", as you can see they are making fun of this freezer tweak over at www.hometheatertalk.com TOO............Richard
This is like beating a dead horse! Thick Headed Wow! Get out of the Freezer Richard, & just enjoy your Movies, & Music. If you need a another side hobby, try Frozen Cow Tipping in Winter if you can't break the Freeze Habit? ;0)~

I'm going to dump Sting cd into the cooler for a while. He's always singing about bad weather and Russia and crap like that. So, he'll have a marvelous time there. or maybe I'll put Foreigner's song "Cold as Ice" in it. Maybe the improved lyrics will be heard as, "you're as old as the ice age..."
But seriously, I'll tell you all one thing that IS true: There's a lot of B.S. out there regarding need for special cleaners for cds. I use a common cleaner (no abrasives, DUH!) with a bit of bleach in it to clean my cds. Very big improvement. You don't need any $30 per ounce liquids. I suppose I'll garnish some enemies for saying it, but it does improve sound significantly.
I didn't used to believe years ago that speaker cable made a difference - they do. I also didn't think interconnects could - they do. Now, I'm seeing big differences with power cords. Cleaning cd's makes a difference. Freezing them? I'll do one, just for kicks. If you're not willing to look stupid, you might not learn. But, I'll think twice about freezing electronics.
Douglas, people have been freezing there electronics for a while now, if it was not SAFE I think we would have heard about it by now.......don't you think so?.......Richard
I can't believe this guy found his way here with this drivel. I cryo tools for work, and cryo makes a difference in tool life. Home freezer does not, it does not compress the grain enough to overcome its internal stress.
Freezer cryo is whishful thinking, and gives real cryogenic treatment a bad name
Rpatrick has been BANNED from at least 1 forum that I know of(Decware)for this type of nonsense.
Hotsauce, your right about Cryo Treatment for Tools but for "Audio components" all you need is Freezer Treatment.......I got kick off the Decware Forum because the owner thought I was trying to sell products on his forum but I was only trying to tell people about products that I really owned and used......."the owner of Decware never even contacted me first before kicking me off his forum"!......Rpatrick
Yeah,I put my ear in the freezer for sometime and the high frequency response increased and the distortion absolutely dropped to zero.Gosh! u guys just crack me up!!!
I tried something different that is even better now!.........First make sure the Freezer is set at the (lowest Temperature setting)......then put your CD's, DVD's, Cables, or Components in the Refrigerator for 24 hours........then put them in the Freezer for (36 hours).......then put them back in the Refrigerator for 24 hours.......then put them in the coldest part of your house for 24 hours.........then your ready to enjoy.........Richard
Sorry about that, the up-date on this freezer tweak is to put it in the freezer for (72 hours) not (36 hours).......3 days in the freezer...........Rpatrick
I would be leery of purchasing used equipment from someone who freezes his or her components. Wide temperature thermal cycling stresses the electronic components and solder joints. This "treatment" results in fatigue and reduced component life because of the abnormal contraction (when the component is frozen) then expansion (when the component is powered back up). Be careful!
