Listener fatique is usually caused by one of two things. Distortion which forces the brain to work hard ignoring or trying to ignore the offensive sound. The other is lack of clarity or completeness of a sound which makes the brain work overtime filling in the blanks attempting to make the music a whole. A complete and cohesive sound image if you will.
I suspect your new loudspeakers deliver a more highly resolved soundscape which is inviting your brain to listen more closely than ever. Hard work, even with the finest of systems. This phenomenum coupled with the stiff surrounds of the new drivers and cross-overs which also require considerable break in time to perform smoothly all contribute to a less than musical experience.
I would suggest you play your system at a lower volume than usual and try not to focus on the performance of the loudspeakers but rather the music itself. Nothing spoils a musical experience more than over-analyzing and dissecting a performance.
Try not to listen like a reviewer. A couple of beers might help the process.
Cheers,
Finnman
PS: There is always the possibility that your room is too lively acoustically. multiple reflections can cause the brain to work over-time as well. Your new speakers may have brought this issue front and centre.
