Cryogenic treatment of an LP?

"Well, with over 105,000 casualties at Hiroshima and Nagasaki, I think it's pretty safe to say that the atomic bomb is real."

Yes, I suppose that's true. But it's also true the use of the atomic bomb prevented 500, 000 casualties. So, one could say the atomic bomb is a real lifesaver.

the preposterous nature of things like cryo-records, wire and fuse directionality, tiny little bowl resonators, coloring the edge of CDs, crystals, Mpingo discs, demagnetizers, ionizers, extremely low frequency generators, things of that nature, there will be a lot of skepticism to overcome. I guess you could say the same about black holes, the big bang, relativity theory, teleportation and the atomic bomb

but he left out "calling someone up on the telephone to make his system sound better"...

"I guess you could say the same about black holes, the big bang, relativity theory, teleportation and the atomic bomb - the preposterous nature of such things makes it extremely difficult to conceive they're real without proof or demonstration." - Geoffkait

The audio world has a lot of BS products that consumers lacking scientific knowledge happily purchase. Some of the products you list fall into the category and others have potential, but I think cryo-LPs takes the cake.

As for black holes, I don't claim to have any knowledge on the subject, but I'm skeptical that we really have a solid understanding of a lot of things in space. I believe the Big Bang to be total BS, but that discussion has nothing to do with audio so I'll leave it alone. Do some reading on origins and you'll find that the Big Bang isn't really the best explaination even from the perspective of evolution. Teleportation isn't a reality and I highly doubt it will ever be. Finally, including the atomic bomb in this list is just plain ignorant.

I have been racking my brain to come up with any reason that a cryo-LP would sound better. Sometimes something unexpected happens during a process and the change is attributed to the wrong thing. Here's the only thing that I can think of.

Is it possible that during the process of cryo treating an LP it's become cleaner? I know dust and such has a significant impact on how it sounds. Is it possible that the cryo process somehow allows the contaminants on the surface to be released such that they can be removed during the cleaning process?
