cryoed vs uncryoed wire A/B tests?


Can anyone that has actually used both describe the difference between a cryoed and uncryoed version of a certain wire?

Please dear friends only reports on actual experience, I have read all the post of the detractors of the process. I for one know that wire does make a sonic difference (tried many different ones at the same time in the same system and differences for me were clearly audible). I am just wondering given one wire if cryoing it would deliver the usual goodies, more clarity, better extension, more �organic� sound, what ever you tell me. Any risks associated with the treatmen of the cables?

I have had many different wires cryoed as well as many audio connectors (RCA/XLR and binding posts). In my experience all wires as well as connectors I have cryoed so far have had some improvement but extent of improvement seems to vary from very small to very significant. Unplated wires and connectors show the greatest improvment and heavy silver plated wires show less improvment, with heavy gold plated connectors showing the least amount of improvement. The usual improvement is increase in detail, clarity and extension, openness with deeper soundstage.
I have a pair of VH Audio Pulsars. They came to me used and uncryo'd. The sound was very very clear and there was an incredible seperation between instruments but there was something not quite cohesive about the image. Some sounds were forward of the rest of the sound stage. It was an interesting effect but a little distracting. My GF was the blind evaluator and she heard the effect too compared to a couple other wires we have.

I sent them to be cryo'd. They returned and the image was as clear as before and there was plenty of space between the instruments but the overall presentation seemed to be more cohesive. Extension seemed about the same. The sounds that previously seemed too forward and out of place now are part of the image.
Drt thxs for your reply.
Drt would you say that the two cables have a different "tonal" presentation of the music? i mean i think extensive listening like yours is an excellent A/B testing method according to me. so i am very interested.

could you say more about the tonal balance, bass mid high frequency rendition. do the two cables seem different in any of these areas? darker sound? or anything...

For me, trying some tubes ( Svetlana el34 quads )that I have the same as uncryo'd.The cryo version seems to be more refined. No tone changes but the leading edges are more noticeable and all mids and high notes have more refinemnet..........
