The Future of Hifi is just being Discovered

J-wall,

As you can see-WITHOUT even going to the archives, audio cryo is part of audiophoolery.

@tablejockey it seems as this is just being discovered so I don't think that is the case. Some have their take on tubes, but calling it "audiophoolery" is a disservice to innovation. I don't think brands like Shunyata would be using it if it provided no value. Caelin is a lot smarter than most of the peanut gallery here. 

Aerospace industry, military aviation are two examples using this technology on critical parts for enhanced wear resistance. Landing gears, turbines, engine parts, cabin parts, communication systems, guidance, cabling, etc. What about F1 cars.

On the other hand in audio i cannot think of a better example of many Japanese, and not only, manufacturers in cabling and accesories following cryo treatment on their products. Marketing, i do not think so.

J-wall,

I imagine very few- if any, readers see  my use of the term audiophool as just poking fun at EVERYTHING/EVERYONE(including myself) who participates in this often ridiculous hobby.

Other than setting gear up with safety in mind, it's a free for all regarding many things "hi end audio."

I just can't take it THAT seriously. I get there are others who might approach this obsession differently.

Put cryo in the try for yourself and decide category.

You have a solid setup. No wallet draining peripherals required. Just room/speaker optimization and good LP's to play.

@tablejockey I gotcha, no hard feelings. I'm just here to learn and to push back when something doesnt quite make sense to me. But I'm also here to learn and listen from those with experience and are open to the dialogue.

The purpose of this post was wholly and entirely to spark dialogue about how electrons can actually flow like water and the effects of very cold temperatures on them. I'm not an expert, just interested in learning  There's a lot of dialogue from want to be experts , but the claims by science people smarter than me seem to conclude differently.
