I need some clarity


Hey guys, can yall give some suggestions on how to brighten the sound of my system. It consists of:
Ah! Njoe Tjeob CDP with the Burr Brown OPA627 Op-amp upgrade
Van Den Hul The Bay C5 IC
Parasound HCA 750 power amp
Acoustic Reasearch speaker wire (to be replaced soon)
Magnepan MMG

The midrange is quite nice and strong, the bass is fine, but I need more clarity and detail. My options in placement is very limited because I live in the dorm at my school, plus I have a roommate so I only have half of the room. I'm hoping I wont have to buy a pre amp with tone controls or brighter speakers. Any and all suggestions are welcome.

Thanks

If you are not already using a Siemens 7308, maybe you should try. My brother have the same CD player (with the same OP-Amp upgrade) and his sounds very detailed and articulate. Soundstage was bigger too compared when he was using a Jan tubes.

Also, on my own experience, try a Nordost IC or speaker cables, or a Silver type interconnect like what Tireguy suggested. They are very good in giving a "bright" edge to any system that I hook them up.

Hope this helps
