Hey Delta,
I guess you are using transparent cables to and from the CSP3-25? Then, I am wondering what tubes you are using. My modified CSP3 has a sonic character, but one I like, and that I would not call veiled. But I cable roll power and ICs on occasion to support musical transparency, as well as vibration mitigation, and tubes! With this all balanced, along with CSP gain settings being pretty tuned, I can go from warm and full, to leaner and open pretty easily depending on tubes, and with excellent micro information.
Besides tubes, one thing I always notice with my Decware, is that once all is really balanced to transparent and open, it is sensitive to voltage (higher=denser/thicker, lower=more open/spacious). Also, we know cable materials and design/geometry can make notable differences, but also cable/wire gauge can really matter with similar effects to voltage changes. Along with these design and material influences effecting the sense of transparency or lack thereof, if the sound is thickish and darkish enough to feel veiled, I can change that with a good sounding lighter gauge power cable...and/or less heavy ICs of the same design and materials can open things up.
Anyway, I, and others here, have tried loads of tubes and if you are interested, if we knew what you were using, we may be able to help.?.
