B&W 703 - How to tame the highs?

I traded up my Paradigms studio 100s this past summer for these B&W 703. I find the highs on the 703 to be a bit harsh / bright. How do I tame them? I currently have them toed in slightly towards the listener.

Problem solved. Your speakers are probably one of the most important components in your system. What keep something that is bright? Move on and upgrade. Chris

Yea, I have this stereo system that I tolerate.. Not good. You will spend more time and money trying to make them sound good which will end up costing you more than upgrading them now. KiD

The speakers might be taming down or your hearing is getting used to the glory of a metal dome tweeter. Whatever you get, I would get a Soft Dome or Ring tweeter. Not a metal one. Chris
