Freezer Cryoed Cables...

Why is this any sillier than:

- Pacing half-cut rubber balls under equipment;
- Painting CD edges green;
- Brass cones that drain energy (only brass - nothing else);
- $3,000 power cords;
- Cable cooking;

I'm sure there are other things to list that on their face sound ridiculous. But some people swear by them. So what? We can all sound off on technical reasons why THIS particular situation in untenable, but remember: most things that we find that work are often scoffed by electrical engineers and the like. And maybe they're right - what if what we hear is plausibly explained by psychiatrists than engineers/scientists? Perish the thought.

Treljia, get in all the listening you can before your head warms up, when it returns to room temperature all the benefits will be lost!

Now, the CD freezer thing is something I'd be willing to try. I stand to lose only 15 bucks if this doesn't work or my disc takes ona permanent fishy odor.

It also makes sense that since the temperature of a freezer can't even close to the molecular restructuring a cryo chamber can accomplish that the Frigid-Aire method would only be temporary.

Rpatrick, sorry for piling on the jokes, but look at it from our point of view. You've only been posting here for a month, and you don't have a virtual system to view, so we don't know if you're freezing Rat Shack cables or Nordost Valhallas. So when someone new comes in here telling us to put expensive gear in the freezer next to the Hungry Man Dinner, we're gonna wonder.

I'll give the CDs a try though.

Buscis2, Audiobugged really likes the fishy stuff, heheh.

Sherod, I've been hearing about musicians cryoing stuff for years, so there must be something there. Are you gonna send your wife's Alvarez out for deep immersion? LOL. How've you been?!

Hey Norbert,

You have a problem with Taiwan? I'd let you know that I am from Taiwan, and the stereo equipment made in Taiwan are crap. But you didn't have to point it out and hurt my nationalistic pride!

Really, eventhough molecular structure in metal doesn't change at normal freezing point, metal is maleable and would respond physically to changes in tempurature.

I've said this before and I will say it again. We need an audiophile subzero fridge to store all our stereo and software. Not only will it keep things frozen, but the fridge can shield the system from airborn interference.

BTW, did anyone see this Japanese drama where this lady cut her husband's head off and store it in her freezer? She was later caught cuz the neighbors got curious as they can hear her fighting with her husband everynight, yet her husband had been missing for months. Turns out the husband had an affair... so she made sure he couldn't do it again.

Nahhh Ed, but I saw the one where the Japanese prostitute cut off her lovers schweeenn and carried it in her hand around town.

Whooa. I just involuntarily flinched.

Gs5556, my apprehension revolves around the possible damage this experiment might result in. Especially coming from someone new to the forum. Now if it were Sean suggesting this, I wouldn't be reacting this way. And I agree, some of the unmeasured improvements or sonic changes we perceive with tweaks may be psychological. Us car enthusiasts like to refer to this as the Butt-Dyno. :•)

Hi all, this Freezer tweak works and it WILL NOT DAMAGE your components if you do it the right way..........This is a great TWEAK and its FREE!........Give it a try.....you will thank me for telling you about this GREAT TWEAK when you try it!!!.........Richard
