To much high

This weekend I traded my B&W CDM1's for a pair of beautifully finished home-made speakers, comprising a Morel tweeter, Seas (aluminium) mid/low and Seas woofer in a tall housing. I listened to them on a tube amp in a heavily furnished room, and they sounded awesome. Back home (you guessed it....) I connected them to my transistor amp, in a rather hard-sounding room. The low and mid is everything I ever dreamed of, but the top-end is driving me nuts. Since I don't have the cash to change my amp I'm thinking of changing my (silver) speaker cable, or, as some sort of last resort, placing a resistor before the tweeter. Any (other) suggestions?

Chiming in: the room (some expense). Placement (no expense).
What lead you to silver speaker cables? Depending on implementation some silver cables can vary the highs quality... Might you have any old speakers cable to swap for a test (no expense), a friend that could lend a hand here ( you will know your next expense, if they work you don't return them one less freind though!!)?
