@tannoy56 probably too much   
The new dynamic in speaker pricing
I've been looking into Von Schweikert a little bit and I can't believe some of their prices. I'm sure they're great speakers, but the Ultra 11 costing $350k to me is ridiculous for a brand that doesn't seem that well known. Even the Gryphon stuff ...

@franklinb66 that's my exact question as well. If electrons flow like fluid, what are the current limitations getting in the way of this. How will electronics, cables and all devices going forward  use these learnings and what Pandora's box does t...

@thecarpathian What's that saying, "a pot calling the kettle black"? Nice try, have a lovely night you big fountain of information you.

@thecarpathian I don't think you've managed to convince anyone here you know what you're talking about, so you can save your "spanking" for your grandchildren. Listen, you aren't intimidating and you are providing zilch to the discussion. Your res...

@thecarpathian you seem to be fixated on my thoughts for some weird reason. We don’t agree and you are free to die on your hill of being an expert in Cryogenics. I'm not an expert, but I don't buy what you're selling and it is what it is. It's not...

@petg60 I just was reading about Telefunken cryo'ing their tubes. Interesting stuff on how it smoothes the grains. I even read a few things about how cryo'ing saw blades help them to remain sharper longer and are not dulled as quick when the blade...

@tablejockey I gotcha, no hard feelings. I'm just here to learn and to push back when something doesnt quite make sense to me. But I'm also here to learn and listen from those with experience and are open to the dialogue. The purpose of this post...

@tablejockey it seems as this is just being discovered so I don't think that is the case. Some have their take on tubes, but calling it "audiophoolery" is a disservice to innovation. I don't think brands like Shunyata would be using it if it provi...

I’d have a hard time believing studying cryogenics has been going on for decades. Possibly metalurgy, but not cryogenics. But you honestly believe that nothing new or cutting edge is in a scientific journal? A hifi website and a guy has already be... 
The Future of Hifi is just being Discovered
@thecarpathian essentially freezing an item has to do with the way electrons flow through the item. That's exactly the point. I'm not a +60 year old audiophile like most here, so I found this article about metallurgy and freezing an item to have a...

@thecarpathian the definition of cryogenics is: Merriam-Webster  : of or relating to the production of very low temperatures b: being or relating to very low temperatures   This article has to do with how electrons move at very cold temperatu...

@tablejockey what about cable users? Or cryo on components/tubes? Seem to be there is some effect.

@eric5kim was I too on the nose? Lol.
