Cryogenic experience wanted. Constructive please


I have been saving and working to upgrade my system and its been paying off. I'm finding listening to small changes assessing then going back or moving forward, largely paying attention to tone ( probably harmonics really) does it sound more like a violin etc. Also paying close attention to feeling of music ( does the change bring me more involvement with the content) have been reading about cryogenic treating speaker driver. Could anyone share some insight to who, where, what; or what not to treat. My drivers are Omega 8" alnico with hemp paper I believe. Is there a large risk in treating them. I mean physical damage not how they will sound. What would those of you who have done treatment to gear suggest doing cables and tubes even component all at the same time? Thanks for reading all that and any input is appreciated. Please no, does it work or how. If you have not had items treated and want to talk hype. Please refrain thx.

Did some investigation regarding the permanent effects of cryogenic treatment of wires, and it is a almost permanent effect. The wire will change slightly from bending it but not change back to its original form. This according to a few local treatment facilities. Guess Ill have to partially eat my words.

As Always, Good Listening

Had an entire Olympia LX preamp with its CPS power supply cryogenically treated Olympia LX There was maybe a very small increase in transparency in the sound produced by the preamp after the procedure.

As far as treating cables is not money well spent in my opinion as soon as you start moving the cables i.e.. bending etc. the effects of the treatment on the metal starts disappearing.

Only way for you to find out is to try it and then see what you find. As far as your drivers I'd be concerned about damage of the surrounds from the cool down - ask whom ever does the procedure for you they should have experience in what materials don't freeze down well.

Good Listening
