Home Tweakers' Asylum

Tweaks for systems, rooms and Do It Yourself (DIY) help. FAQ.

I believe it was several years ago...

...I read about this in Stereophile or some other mag, so I did indeed try it. Hell, I even tried Sam Tellig's tweak of quarters on the corners of my speakers, lifting my cables off the carpet, and so on. Most of the home DIY tweaks I've tried at least once. And you know what? NONE of them worked for me. (Yeah, I know the mantra. My system doesn't have the resolving power, I did it wrong, it wasn't the right time of the month, etc.) So you can understand my skepticism. With regards to the original poster's home "cryogenic" treatment, freezing CD's, cables, or pictures of yourself in your freezer, is a helluva long ways away from doing the same in liquid nitrogen. If the results in true cryogenic conditions are debatable (I'm not saying they don't work), the likeyhood you're going to get anything audible at about 32 degrees F is slim to none. Oh, it may be fun for a free experiment. That's why I did it. But don't try to equate your home freezer with a true cryogenic treatment. That's like comparing a ride in a AA fuel dragster with dad's Buick.
