I would recommend acoustic zen. I used to have the red dawns in my system and like you wanted add just a bit of warmth and body. I auditioned a whole bunch of cables and ended up gettng the AZ Ref Matrix between my amp and preamp and the Silver Matrix between my preamp and sources. Great cables! You can find them here for sale within your price range.
Nordost Red Dawn with less brightness?
What will sound like Nordost Red Dawn with a tad less brightness?
I have almost reached the preferred sound, and the only component left is interconnects between DAC and pre-amp.
I have tried Nordost Red Dawn in this place and what I liked was very believable soundstage, impression of space and imaging. What I did not like is somewhat edgy, bright sound.
Has anyone had any experience with interconnects that have the same signature as Red Dawn but with a bit less of brightness? The soundstage cannot be compromised, I am soundstage freak.
And imaging must remain good, cannot have screwed-up timing, for example cymbals emanating from tweeters while drums are way back and center.
Anything in a range of up to 500.00, used or new?
