| Cable Cooking/Burnin Lak, I have the opposite results with cryoing gold. I have cryo'd copper, silver, gold, aluminum, vinyl, plastic, ceramics, wood, brass. All to good effect. There are some reasons why folks sometimes get negative results, not limited not waiting... | |

| B&W 'New' 800 Series "When you are able to create diversity in stage height the music comes to you differently."I actually agree. And getting proper vibration isolation under the source components especially and hopefully under EVERYTHING will go a long way in achievi... | |
| Cable Cooking/Burnin Tom, oh, no, not THAT again. Haha! | |
| Cable Cooking/Burnin Sorry for the AutoCorrect failure, unfortunate choice of words but not mine. I blame Apple. OK, so now we have a theory for CDs, Cryogenics or freezing improves the transparency. Without saying whether I agree with you or not, let me ask another q... | |
| B&W 'New' 800 Series Right. It's getting the 4 dimensional soundstage that's the tricky part. ;-) | |

| Cable Cooking/Burnin I freeze for two days then slow thaw to room temp. It's permanent. I.e., irreversible. | |
| Cable Cooking/Burnin I am referring to the home freezer circa 10 degrees F. As I said previously all thermodynamic processes are permanent. When one cryogenically treats a CD are you suggesting the CD is annealed? ;-) | |
| Cable Cooking/Burnin I certainly do not think that cryogenics involves dipping something in liquid nitrogen and pulling it out. Whatever gave you that idea? It's all computer controlled or should be. I also am a big fan of home freezing, you know, to save on the cost ... | |
| Cable Cooking/Burnin Cryogenics benefits all or almost all materials, steel, aluminum, plastic, whatever. So most likely one shouldn't equate cryo with burn in. If you wish to burn in the entire system look no further than the XLO test CD burn in track. Put the player... | |
| Cable Cooking/Burnin Less are saying nay today? Interesting....;-) | |
| Esoteric Wagner Solti Ring SACD Box Set.... I would be inclined under the circumstances to go for the standard CD version. How bad could it be? | |
