i owned a musical fidelity a5 and have listened to musical fidelity based systems many times. the musical fidelity components are ruthless.
i have lived with acoustic interconnect cables--interconnect and speaker. they are not warm.
eggleston speakers are very revealing. even discounting the ac and the room, your electronics and cable are part of the problem.
i am sorry if i may have offended you by indirectly criticizing your stereo system, but i think your electronics and possibly cables are sources of extra energy in the upper mid/lower treble region.
what is the solution. try a more vintage tube sound. the top of the line vac integrated amp is worth a listen (yes, it's expensive). as for cable, dcca, chimera labs and sunny cable technology cable are worth a listen.
i am looking for a digital source myself and am disappointed in what is available right now. i am afraid the industry is heading in the direction of more and more resolution with the byproduct of imbalnced sounding components.
if you want to have a longer conversation on the subject you can contact me directly.
