recommendation for speaker wire to soften the highs if possible

Hello,
I need help. My problem is my system sounds harsh on the highs to me. Not extremely bad, but enough that I need to fix it. My system consists of Ryan 610's, oppo Sonica Dac, and a Belles 150a hotrod amp. Speaker wires being used are old monster cable from the 90's. I also have monster cable rca. I mostly stream through Tidal. My question is can I make the desired effect by switching cables or should I add  a tube amp or pre amp. My budget on the wire would be around 300.00
Thanks in advance for any suggestions

I would try single wiring them. Going to the bass/mid first then jumping to the tweeter. Once there you can play with the jumpers to the highs, using standard lamp cord or simply try a number of different wires available at a good hardware store. 

I think this will tell you if you need different speaker cables.
