I would always give new cables a chance to bed in before making a judgement like this. My current speaker cables (Chord Sarum) sounded very bright for many hundreds of hours. Indeed they sounded so bad at first that I thought there was a problem with them resulting in my contacting the manufacturer.
They are pretty much perfect now. It is a known issue with Chord Sarum; they need LOTS of running in.
