Freezer Cryoed Cables...

On the other side of the coin, what about cryoed cables/outlets/tubes that are shipped to hot climate areas in the heat of the summer. Does the molecular structure of the metal conductors revert back to their pre-cryo state? Do folks pay extra for expedited shipping in dry ice???

I have lots of experience with real cryo. That being said, I have never placed any of my equipment or wire in the freezer. What I have done, previous to any cryo of wire in my system, is throw CD's into the freezer for a few days (ie. 24-48 hours). For those willing to try this, I think you many of you will be surprised at audible improvements. The question is whether this "treatment" has the staying power, or the total effect, of real cryo. IMHO it does not, but throwing CD's into the freezer is something that anyone can do at any time, and this is a tweak that has actually been discussed in different forums for at least a few years. So my suggestion to the skeptics would be at least to try some "frozen" CD's and then report back.

Hdm, this cd tweak does it leave condensation on the disc as it warms up? I have heard of this tweak for years, yet never gave it a try. The moisture thought just came to mind.

I keep my dope in the freezer. It keeps it fresh.

I have to admit that about 15 years ago, I put a B&K amp in the refrigerator for a few days (wrapped in plastic of course). I let it sit at room temp for a day before hooking it up. I have to admit that the sound did change for a few days, but it did revert back to its original sound. I think it had something to do with the grease in the caps.

As far as freezing cables goes, there might be a short term change in sound. Maybe, it effects the dialectic in the jacket. I doubt that it's a long term change. A lot of tweeks in this hobby escape explination.

Enjoy,
