Warm sounding power cord for for CD player to suppress digital glare on vocals.

What would be a good warm-signature power cord for a digital component to suppress glare in the upper mids/lower treble? I listen to older CDs (and the Bealtes) and there is definitely some glare in vocals on many of these recordings, mainly in redbook. Thanks in advance.

Forget the power cable,put a Tube Buffer between components.You will never hear digital the same again & you will love it!

Wouldn't it be easier to just buy another CD player?

A Sablon Audio Robusto PC will definitely do the trick. It's an older cord that you can pick up for little money.
 It's not as detailed and open as newer cords but the tone is beautiful.

As some have said that adjusting in one area sacrifices SQ in other areas, I agree.  The only solution I came up with was to have a second CDP tuned a little warmer.

The only-only solution is to purchase better quality disk. Other than that you can take half-pint of whiskey and listen again and figure it isn't that bad after all.
