OK, guys. I just got my invoice and tracker on the three copies of "DIVISION BELL" from Stelly. They should be here on the 27th and I'll get the cryo going on one, two or nine of them as soon as they land. At that time I will publish a participants list and get all of the addresses so we can get this "Magical Mystery Tour" (uh- oh... different music) going. We'll all learn something from this, so......................

Dave

Looking forward to it (and listening to the "Discovery" mix

)! Some great work by DG on this album.

Fun way to start the new year in Audio Land.

I'd be willing to participate. Lots of experience with cryo here, including CD's. Cryoed CD's are interesting. My experience is that the benefits are greater on CD's with weaker initial recording and mastering. Stuff that has a bad case of the digital nasties.

But I'd be willing to take a crack at it. Not only identifying differences, but actually identifying which CD(s) have been cryoed and which have not. I think I'd have a pretty good chance of doing so.

You're in. The more the merrier... and the better sample.

Hey, by my count, we need just one more to reach a decade.

Surely, someone else is curious.
Surely, someone else wants to have a bit of fun.
Surely, someone else can't resist the deliciousness of this exercise.

Indeed, I did. We have:

carusoracer
SteveFord
mikeeastman
medium jim
dflee
blakep

That's 9 - a nice start, but more would add to the weight of the data.

No cap, Jason. Welcome aboard.

We will have to determine at what point results will be released or this thing can go on forever.

I think that we should email or PM Control with individual findings and then he and I will determine when we have statistically meaningful results. As far as I am concerend they can circulate forever.

Kudo's for the protocols put in place, it will lead to a more impartial and relevant outcome.

Wow, I figured this would have at least 100 involved by now.

Mighty fine of ya', Dave. This is, and has unlimited potential to be, very cool.

Can I play?

Merry Christmas, Dave,

Jerry

Sure. I think we will cut the sample to report as I stated earlier, but we should keep this thing going until the discs disappear or I run out of money.

Merry Christmas back. 'Tis the season to be thankful for a lot of things, including family, friends and audio goodness. I'll leave the obvious part out for reasons that are beyond reason.

Ho, ho, ho..................

Dave:

Chalk it up to the holidays...it may actually be on the way and missed the initial scan at the sort center. Hopefully, this is the case, if not we will just have to wait a bit longer.
