FWIW Mike I think it would be 1) easier and B) more productive to dig inside that WOO and find a way to alter the biasing of your 6DR7 or 6FD7. You may be able to dial it in "just perfect" for your ears.
If you decide to go forward with cryo LN (liquid nitrogen) treatment make sure your tubes are slowly brought down in temperature then back up. Sort of annealing. Maybe Mr Samra can heave brake drums & such into a pail of LN with no ill effect but I expect glass won't put up with a temp change from room to what, @ -300F. In fact I'd recommend you take his advice & buy a couple cryo'd tubes from Upscale & evaluate them.
Me, I'd find a way to adjust bias, and cryo treat an adult beverage with good cubes at 32F. Enjoy!
