Cryo-treating CDs?

Does anyone have an idea regarding how cryo treatment could affect the sound? There is no sound on the digital disc, just a bunch of ones and zeros. About all you could do would be turn some ones into zeros or vice versa, and it seems that this would degrade the sound, not improve it.

El, maybe one or both those treatments helps the CD player "read" the ones and zero's, and therefore reproducing the music more as it was intended.

What does it cost to cryo treat a CD?

Most cryo vendors have a per pound charge. Here is an example:

If you are fortunate enough to find a vendor locally, you may be able negotiate a slightly better price if they have an almost full load going in and you are the "top up". It is not very expensive.

I tried the Cyro thing 6-10 years ago after I read about it in Stereophile. The Cyro vendor was just a walk across the parking lot from my father's hosiery mill. I tried a couple of CD's and could not hear any difference. I had a 5$500 Rotel at the time. If I had a better player maybe the subtle nuiances would have come out. I have a much better CD player now. I have the Bedini clarifier and that DOES make a differnce. I may still try Cyro again. The knife I had Cyro treated held an edge that you would not believe. I would like to hear the physics side on how a cyro CD would sound better. Mike
