Cables to mitigate CD glare -upper mids/lower hi's

Currently using a fine CDP (Accuphase 75v) but on "non-audiophile" CD's there is the typical upper mid range-lower treble glare. My system is very revealing (Hurricane amps / Total Victory speakers) -- any suggestions on cables which could mitigate this condition. I am aware that Cardas Golden could do this. Current using Coincident cables. Any other suggestions?

I am not using a preamp. Going direct from the Accuphase 75V into the power amps. The 75V is not inherently bright (not in the least). I believe the issue may be the ribbon tweeter on the Coincidents TV's. I am also going to try different input tubes on the Hurricanes.

I am using an Audio Tekne cd transformer for 2 years and it is astonishing how the glare is removed Without changing the music. The changing of cables that removed the glare also diminished the music in most cases.
