Klipsch Forte ii too bright, or is it my room ?

Help? Certain music makes my ears hurt from my bright sounding Klipsh Forte ii's (Sonny Rollins Saxophone Colossus), Or is it my room full of glass and tile? Or am I listening too loud (80 db), or my 1970's Pioneer receiver? I just ordered some dynamat to put on the rear of the horns. Some music is good though. I have often though about getting another pair of speakers so I can switch back and forth or run all four depending on the music. Any advise?

Not familiar with the Fortes but back in the eighties had a pair of La Scalas. Happy when I bought them, happier still when I sold them. Sorry, just not my cup of tea and this was when matched with the original Mac 275 and/or Marantz 2´s ( these I regret selling to the day). 
Your room is definitely adding to exasperating the brightness but the speakers character  is what it is.
