Have not listened to vocal music yet and certainly not to female vocals (which I don't do very often).
Sibilancy can also be part of the recording, so you should be clear about this that the recording is OK.
Otherwise you might start downgrading the sound quality of the playback in order to get rid of the sibilancy in the recording.
