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?
