I have been using the Van Damme 4mm blue cables for a good 6 months now, and they are better (for me) that way more expensive Audioquest cables I started out with, but they had only a little effect on the the brightness you mentioned (with my Triangle Deltas), but enough to make reproduction a little less wearing...
BUT, the biggest and quite dramatic effect on brightness came when I swapped from 'Air' to USB and added two jitterbugs + the recon unit! Chalk & Cheese! the whole reproduction of any track I care to play is more 'rounded', warmer, sweeter... didn't expect such a change!
I now have some SoundCare Superspike stick-ons to play with this weekend, so I will be trying this mod by placing under each D400 unit to see what happens!
Still waiting for my Linear PS from HDPlex ordered way back early October... Gad! - think they are coming by Oxen across the continents!
