Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

Re: Will a tube amp tame a harsh metal tweeter??

Cd player: Music Hall CD 25, Amplifier: Arcam Alpha 7, Room Size: 11 x 14.

I also have an NAD C541i that I've been playing with, but I find it to be thin and harsh compared to the Music Hall. I've been toying with the idea of a new Arcam or Jolida JD 100 player, but I don't know what to do. I've having a terrible time figuring out the problem. I used to have MIT Terminator series cables and interconnects and they made the system sound even worse. I'm using temporary stuff right now, Tributaries, generic, etc. Although the cheap cables rob the system of detail and extended frequency response, I don't find that they obscure the essence of the problem. I would say that the cables will fine tune the system, but I'm not too worried about them at the moment. I am tempted to upgrade to the Monitor Audio S8, which sound more relaxed, but I'm also wondering why a die hard two-channel guy like me is favoring all these home theater speakers???? Confused............
