I would highly suggest you replace that high end cable you probably paid to much for and replace it with Canare. It has the ability to leave the detail and remove a considerable amount of brightness. One system has Mogami, and my old Swans M1 (HiVi F5 with Planar Tweeter) speakers loves it, but my new DIY speakers (HiVi F5, with a Fountek ribbon seem way too bright with the Mogami (one of the truest interconnect cable you can buy). I moved it to my other system with Canare, and the brightness disappeared but the detail did not. In the past, I just bought good cable and didn't think about the affect, but now I pay close attention to what I use.
