A warm DAC?


Help me pair a DAC with my Prima Luna integrated, Focal 1038 be and PS Audio Perfect Wave transport...Speakers are quite detailed. Looking to level out the high end. Prefer analog warmth. No interest in streaming, expect to use for CD play only...budget $2500.

SimAudio products are slightly warmer but retain the musicality of a good system.  A 280d is likely in that price range.

After living with several DACs in the past 10+ years I have never, ever, enjoyed my CDs, new and old, like I do now. Soundstage, extension, great bass, warm but not molasses, sweet top end.

I haven't posted much but have been following the Agon Forums for some time.  I too have been thinking about upgrading my Peachtree DAC itx.  
I know this question may start a crap storm but I'm curious to ask those that believe if two DAC's measure the same then they should sound the same then how do you feel about interconnects?  
Do you feel that all cables of decent quality sound the same?
No, I'm not trolling or trying to change the subject.  
This question goes out specifically to djones and dougeyjones.  I'm truly curious because I have been thinking of upgrading/changing my cables as well. Most of my cables are DH Labs BL-1 interconnects but as I added more pieces to my system I have more of a mix of cables some that are no-name brands I got from ebay that were supposedly audiophile quality.
