RE: Where to Custom Cryo in 2014 ????

Stehno....if you contact Charles at Cryogenics International directly, he can explain the soak in plain language better than I.

His treatment is not "typical" nor is it the commercial-grade vapor injection to which you refer. Vapor injection reaches around -295F, -300F at best. Charles methodology reaches the boil-off point of -320F (I rounded from -320.4) via his custom computer-controlled profiles and maintains that deep temperature (the 'soak') for periods beyond 24 hours, usually more with more overall weight and material density.

I've performed many double treatments for more than a decade, finding that the 2nd treatment offers an even quieter noise floor and more "musical information" with cabling, AC connectors & duplexes, and circuitry. However, there is no price break for the 2nd treatment.

Regarding double treatments via immersion, I too was told (perhaps 15 years ago) that a 2nd treatment is not worth the time and money. I don't know, as I've never had that experience. But I do know that there is further compaction with a 2nd treatment (further displacement of gaseous pockets and impurities)....perhaps that is why I've always heard a noticeable sonic improvement. It offers an even "straighter signal path", which is another analogy I like to use.
