Speakers sound too bright.


I just bought a new pair of Martin Logan 60xti speakers.  They are too bright and fatiguing.  I would like to avoid returning them.  I've tried toeing them in and out.  I cant get them further than 1ft away from the wall (back of speaker to wall).  I have a about 1-2 hrs of play time on them.  Not sure if break in will help settle the upper frequencies down. Any suggestions...?

Agree about the Dueland DCA 10ga.They tamped down my Cornwall 4's without loss of detail, and they had been thoroughly broken in by being in the loop of an old telephone transfer station for decades.

Also affixed one inch diameter punched out pieces of black gorilla tape one each to the "mouths" of the the midrange horns.
