Yeah, it's the interconnects. Go to PBJ and dump the Silverstreak and KCAG.

I have heard a lot speakers in my time and to my ears they still have not perfected the "High Frequency" yet !

If you don't get the highs right then it does not matter how good the midrange or bottom end are because it just will not sound right...period !...

On how many discs did the trumpet and piano sound bright? If that is what's on the disc, you have a high-fi system don't you? Before you 'upgrade' try more discs. Try some classical.
