Why "Cryo" anything?

Cyro treatment magically re-aligns the molecules without the object changing shape, Huh? About the only thing that changes is the weight of your wallet. I'm still willing to keep an open mind but the anecdotal evidence I've seen is not convincing.

Thanx,

Newbee,

I'm staying out of the pros or cons argument. Geez, you can tell already that minds are made up. I don't want to get criticized for expressing a point of view one way or the other. FWIW, every golden eared reviewer and manufacurer that I know of hears the differences. Some like it others hate it. I'll be out for the afternoon but I'll email you direct later on.

Please, let's keep this civilized. It's not like we're talking religion or politics. So many insults thrown around in these type of topics and THIS is supposed to be an educated and enlightened group. Show us some class. I'm outta here.

I have only used four cryoed cable, and did not have the same ones in non-cryoed versions to compare to. So I have no first hand observations on the subject. I would point out first, that it is a relatively inexpensive process compared to some of the stuff that we shell out our money on in audioland, generally only adding the cost of a couple of cds to the product, irrespective of the vernturesome pricing of many audio manufacturers. Second, many that I respect, and have the ability to carry out testing with good gear, over a long perious of time, such as Albert Porter, are convinced that there is a benefit from this inexpensive process. Keep an open mind, I do.

I had two of the same power conditioners, I lent one to a friend for a while. When he had it he got it cryo treated. When I got it back I did a side by side comparison with the regular one and I thought the cryo'd one sounded noticably better. I ended up selling the non cryo'd one and keeping the other.

You should have gotten your BS in MSE. Then you could have smoked cigars and snorted crystal meth with my former roomate and MSE classmates. They did it the night before MSE tests. I just left the room and went to sleep elsewhere...
