Freezer Cryoed Cables...
Yes Tvad, I was pretty close to the edge, wasn't I. My sick sense of humor sometimes comes through. Sometimes, I do tend to make people put on their BS wading boots. Anyway,I apologize to anyone that I offended. Just sick humor. On a better note, ... 
Freezer Cryoed Cables...
Good to hear from you, Gunbei. Actually I was going to cry-o the guitar but at the least minute I cryo'd my wife instead. Very expensive, but well worth it. She sits lovingly next to me when I'm doing some serious listening.(It's been a couple of ...

I'm a musician and recently starting browzing a trumpet forum and have read that some professional musicians are cryoing their trumpets with good results. It's amazing how much musicians and audiophiles have in common.

Results of Installing "Porter Ports" in system...

Power Cords Snake Oil ??
Panny, I like Viggen as a fellow audiophile. You didn't understand the post. Perhaps Viggen can jump into this thread and explain the "dancin' on the Table..." thing.

The Great Cryo'd Outlet Test
Hi Stehno. I just noticed that you still have the FIM 880 outlets listed in your Virtual System. Have you determined that they are still the best in your system?
