Focal Mini Utopias

Bought these on Audigon. I find them a tad bit bright. The sound stage is amazing so how do I tone down the brightness. Change speaker cables? Install a tube stage? Get a moderately price parametric equalizer? Get a Tact 2.0S? Adjust the toe-in of the speakers? Yadda, yadda, yadda. My room is not perfect but the soundstage is great -just a little bright, especially with loud rock music.

OK, thanks for your comments so far. Here's the rest of my system: Musical Fidelity(MF)M3 Int. Amp (250 wpc), MF 3DCD, VPI Scoutmaster TT, EAR 834P Phono Stage, Synergistic Research X2 Interconnects and X2 Speaker wire.

If I play a well mixed and mastered disk (anything by Steve Hoffman) it sounds great. Almost anything new is on the bright or harsh side. LPs sound fine. Do I need an equalizer to compensate for bad recordings?

thanks for your input. I am curious as to why my MF amp may not be a good match for these speakers. thanks for your time!
