Cryogenic treatment of an LP?


Is this even possible? I am just thinking outloud here and wondering of the benefits and welcome your comments. I'm unsure if an lp could even survive the process normally targeted at metal components. (Warp factor 10 captain). Ultra freezing and then slowly re-heating a chunk of plastic. Still, one wonders exactly what impact molecular alignment would have (if any).

Through the employment of ultra-low temperatures, 300 Below, Inc. cryogenic processing helps improve all kinds of products by realigning the molecular structure of an object, optimally resulting in items which last significantly longer and perform far better than they were previously designed.

yes, records were designed to be frozen. Hence they sound best at the poles and sound quality deteriorates significantly at the equator and around Marisa Miller.

Playback in the cold vacuum of outer space is the real treat. No bad room acoustics! The solar wind would help deliver a nice warm sound except its a vacuum there which makes it kinda hard to hear anything.

Sorry, even if it works, cryogenic freezing of records is where I jump of the audio bandwagon. You have to be a little obsessive and who knows what else to go there.

I would be afraid to fess up if I did this in that I would expect most any normal person in this world to give me some funny looks? Even more so than if I told them the time and money I invest in this "hobby".

Just thinking about it though is pretty funny!
Cup your hands behind your ears to hear better when listening for guaranteed better results. Cheaper and less expensive than cryo treatment! Results are absolutely guaranteed as well regardless of source medium!
