Cryo'ed LP's

I'm getting ready to cryo a boat load of gear and was thinking about getting some of my best vinyl done. Anyone done this? If so what were your results?

If you have not done this to your LP's I'd rather not hear how lame this idea sounds... I'm sure I will anyway.

I am having my clever clock and pebbles treated<<

Anybody buying that sh** should be treated.

I really like the effect cryo treatment has on SOME materials. After reading the writing of some weenie audio writer who liked cryo'd LP's, I thought I'd add a few LPs to my order with Cryo International. As I feared, every single LP came back warped and unplayable! There were sections I was able to play (typically the inner track) and I compared them to a non cryo of the same LP. Cryo had no significant effect on the LP sound. It sounded identical to me. So there you have it. No improvement, 100% damaged and unplayable.

I like cryo for tubes, copper cables and various parts. BE CAREFUL!
