Which cable will reduce harshness of CD player?


Have been experimenting with different copper and silver cables. My rig is all solid state and I find the CD source to be a little bright. Don't want to upgrade or downgrade or trade so I'm going to flavorize it with some IC's and SPKR cables. I tried the MF Nuvista Silver IC's and were too bright, but very pure, currently switching between Custom House and XLO. Going to try Cardas Quadlink next week. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Try van den Hul The Second, as it will compress the high end a little bit to even things out. What you lose is a little air and depth, but tonally the cable is very smooth.
What is your CD source??? That would help. But Yes, the Van Den Hul The First (or The Second) is a good choice. I believe the Second is a shielded version of The First for HT or other shielded needs. I do not believe the First will compress the high end as much as the Second. (Must be the shielding???) I do not quite agree with Chelillngworth. You did not claim to have a bad CD player. All components sound bad with poorly matched cables.
Musical Fidelity x 10 Tube CD buffer may be your ticket under $ 150 on audiogon etc.
