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.

IF YOU LIKE THE DETAIL OF SILVER...ANALYSIS PLUS SILVER OVAL IS THE SMOOTHEST I HAVE HEARD
I went thru the IC thing earlier this year as I found myself with the same problem. Using a Meridian 506.24 to get a good cable match I wound up with Stealth FLR, upgraded to Stealth CWS and am now using Stealth PGS. I tried AQ Python, HT Pro-Silway & PSS to name a few others. As for speaker cable I was using AQ Crystal & upgraded to JPS Labs Superconductor+ Very good detail & high freq. extension with these cables without brightness. Also Stealth has a 30 day return policy less shipping as do some other cable dealers. Good luck in your search.
Buckingham - I would recommend that, before you "neuter" the sound of your system with interconnects, you might try a different power cord on the unit.

Adding a Shunyata Black Mamba would be a good place to start and will instantly remove the digital hash that NO interconnect can remove without damaging or limiting the signal from your source.

Once the new Power Cord is in your system, you can better determine the best IC's - which may be the ones you already have.
Might want to try audioquest topaz ic's, you can pick up a used pair rather cheaply. They are smooth and laid back, this might be a cheaper fix then some of the other ideas if that matters.
