Hi, With a lot of music I really enjoy my current system, but with some it seems too bright to listen to a whole cd. My system is Naim CD5x/Flatcap 2x, Nait5i2, Paradigm Moniter 7v5 Speakers, with QED Mirco Speaker cable. Since Iv upgraded to the Nait5i amp its improved, but still definately there. Am thinking possibly the speakers are the ones a tad bright? The room has a decent amount of soft things, carpet, sofa , etc etc. Im thinking if the cds that are bright on my system, are probably bright anyway? Fro the top of my head some cd's that seemed bright are...Led Zepplin - Mothership, Bon Jovi, Cranberrys, Pink Floyd seems border line, but still enjoyable. Vocal based cds sound very good however, for example Josh Groban. Any thoughts?
