There is a process in High End Audio which purports to enhance equipment performance , called CryoTreatment.
In this process the audio gear is subjected to a ramp down to -281F (or cooler, but not below -320F), followed by a soak of 20 to 40 hours, followed by a specific warm-up cycle back to R/T.
It is postulated that the technical explanation for the enormous listening benefits of the process is a re-arrangement or refinement of the crystal structure of the conductor metals. The effect is so powerful that objective listeners reported a significant improvement in audio quality when the AC power cord for a preamp was so treated. I doubt my aging ears are responsive to subtleties of this nature.
Anybody care to estimate how an electronic assembly, surface-mount or otherwise, including semiconductor devices, would fare thru this process?
