The Future of Hifi is just being Discovered
@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... 
The Future of Hifi is just being Discovered
@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.  
Devore / Bay Area
I can think of another bay area dealer that told me "We carefully source our gear from the best in the industry. If we don't stock it then you're not buying quality gear". We need better dealers here in the Bay, I haven't been to one that I've app... 
Michael Fremer leaves Analog Planet
@frogman spot on. So many here want to criticize a reviewer for trying a tweak or SR product and then also criticize them on the opposite side of the review. This whole non-start ideology is not productive.  And the reviewers seem to know a whole... 
Michael Fremer leaves Analog Planet
@mr_m you can speculate as much as you'd like. I work in sales with contractors face to face, daily. I don't think I'd be the guy who would be offered by Michael Fremer, sorry.   
Michael Fremer leaves Analog Planet
@mr_m I wouldn't take it to heart. I personally choose not to let someone who is in their feelings and unable to articulate how they feel to dictate their entire persona. Maybe people have bad days and say the wrong thing? Maybe he meant it and is... 
Michael Fremer leaves Analog Planet
@bdp24 Spot on. Some here dislike a person over one trivial human flaw. Or even choose to hate a person over reviewing luxury good. It's pretty nauseating to have to see how arrogant and self involved some are. Fremer has done great stuff for the ...
