My two chipods are in the freezer right now. I put them in a plastic bad because the freezer has a tendency to create massive amounts of ice cristals.
I take it that some of you never listened to music while waiting for the bus or walking home in -30c weather. I've done this with my Panasonic Shockwave cd player (the aluminum casing would get so cold I could barely touch it a few seconds) and with my Sony Minidisk player. Both never suffered from it and played flawlessly. The only drawback was that the LCD wouldn't work when cold.
To add to that, there are millions of electronic components being frozen and thawed everyday worldwide. CARS!! Yes the cd player in your car, the engine management computer, the cd changer, the navigation unit, the amps, etc. None of these suffer from being frozen and used in this state.
I can't say for sure that freezing electronics will make them sound better, but I can assure you that it will not cause damage.
