Popular DAC that is known for its warm-ish sound?

Can anyone name a <popular> DAC that produces a "warm-ish" output?

Just grasping at straws here. Thanks!

Maybe with the right warm preamp/amp. I think the whole Wyred 4 Sound company is built on being the most transparent sound, certainly not warm. I can see Audio Research being very slightly warmish as a tube dac. Maybe look at Marantz or McIntosh offerings?
