Stay in Tune Longer
Achieve ‘Pure’ Tonality
Extended Dynamic Range
It’s hard to sound good when your instrument sounds bad.
Stop playing out of tune. Your instrument was designed for more. You deserve to deliver the peak performance of your career – every time you play.
Increase Your Audio Quality
Increase Your Audio Quality without tuning your instrument every time you play!
Make historic sounds – not geriatric outbursts
Be a distinguished musician. Older instruments sound far better after our cryogenic treatment process and are far easier to play. If you’re playing on an antique musical instrument, our process will help you sound wiser, more harmonic, and less brittle.
Extended Dynamic Range
Your audio will sound better and clearer. Our process extends the life of your metals, which means you spend less on maintenance or repairs while sustaining best-in-class audio reproduction.
Longer life with enhanced harmonic resonance and sustain
Our deep cryogenic tempering process makes your musical instruments sound better than before, and structurally they last longer, too. For pianos, we’ve heard reports from musicians that they can increase the frequency of their tuning service calls to span many months, even years, since metals are said to “age 24 years after our 24 hour process.”
Elimination of Residual Stresses
When we freeze metal to -300˚F, your molecular structure changes to be more resilient. For brass instruments, we mitigate residual stress imparted when bending and forming metals during the manufacturing process to optimize the delivery and reproduction of sound waves exiting the chamber. For stringed instruments, oxygen and humidity are constantly eroding your metal’s peak performance. Seal your metals on musical instruments at the molecular level to mitigate being undermined by oxidation. We extend the life of your musical instruments and audio components with a one-time permanent treatment to reduce risks to your high-quality instruments.
Materials Impacted
Copper, brass, nickel, piano and guitar strings (steel and nylon), wires, cables, and electrical components all respond well to our cryogenic treatment process.

Our Story
We obsess over making metals stronger, longer lasting and better performing. We are confident that improving your metals will save you money. Celebrating over 50 years in business, we have saved thousands of manufacturers time and money by processing millions of pounds of steel through our facilities.
These musicians believed they could form their notes easier after our process while sustaining their notes longer, because it took less air out of their mouth to make the note come through. Their notes seemed clearer because there was more coherence of tonal quality, caused by sinusoidal (sine) waves of audio reproduction being in sync as they escaped the instrument. Other musicians swore their guitar strings became brighter and lasted longer; they were not needing to be reset in tone as often because their strings stay in tune longer. Even Piano players got in on the fun: pianos that previously required tuning every 90 days (even after being played 12 to 20 hours a day for six days a week at a local university) were lasting well over a year following cryogenic treatment before needing to be re-serviced and re-tuned. Thus cryogenic processing became a matter of significance among musicians “in-the-know” who wanted an edge against the status quo. As a result, 300 Below now offers our signature cryogenic treatment process to musicians with a quest for improving their signature sound.
300 Below also makes an effort to remove risk from the equation by offering an unconditional money-back guarantee to underwrite just how happy you’ll be after utilizing our process. We offer musicians a fast 72 hour turnaround to achieve a more rich, robust sound. The only major risk remaining is that some low-quality adhesives on wind instruments will deteriorate during the freezing process, however, pads only need to simply be reglued after cryogenic treatment. Nowadays, we have continued compliments from musicians that swear by our process after attempting every other trick in the book to improve their sound. Celebrating over 50 years in business, 300 Below is committed to improving the stature and notoriety of our clients with musical instruments. We have processed millions of pounds of metals through our facilities and handle some of the most delicate electrical and metal components, whether used in classical music recitals or deep outer space.
