System too harsh Help

I have a Parasound HALO P-21. Thought it would be good to power my Revel 30 preforma's. I will use a Halo P-3 preamp to try to match equipment but not committed to it. Might need another preamp. I was told to buy Harmonic Technology biwires pro-9. I have nordost cable Balduer running from cd Player , CD player is a conosance ref. 2.2 . Tube output.
I have two balanced cables both of which have not solved problem. Harmonic Technology precesion link and some generic silver wires, both balanced. They run from amp to current preamp Nuforce P-8.

The question is :
1. send speaker cables back. Get different one???
2. Add new cables to the signal path to correct brightness problem.
3. get a different preamp.

It sounds O.K. but highs are too crisp .

Can it be fixed witout a amp change. That damed beast cost too much to ship as well as my revel speakers.

Please help, any input would be great

I hate to break it to you but get rid of the nordost cables ,it will
help tame the tweeter of the f30s, it has an emphasis in the treble that while being detailed , is forward and lacks body, try some all copper interconnects and see if it helps. Ps I am VERY familiar with the sound of f30s, I sold them, multiple friends own them , I owned the m20s and now the f32s.
