I have a horn that has the gap receiver, the reversed slides, and cryo-treated.  All was done by the previous owner.  The gap receiver doesn't change the sound, just the change of gap with different mouthpieces.  More a feel issue than sound.  The reversed slides- ?? on the sound change, same with the cryo-treatment.  If I would have bought it new, I would have left it stock.  To each there own.
