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!

No Lampizator mentioned yet. Great and rare blend of warmth and resolution. Go vol control straight to amp. Or pre to add more warmth, if that’s your thing. But imo the DACs really shine straight to amp. 
To some “laidback” means relaxed or more gentle sounding. To others it means the soundstage is at as well as behind the speakers, as opposed to ‘forward’ which pushes the sound projecting at you infornt of the speakers.  It’s usually a laidback vs. forward thing but many also think the first example of relaxed. Or maybe even both.
