Warm, rich sounding interconnects?

My system is in flux at the moment with a Wadia Intuition 01 as preamp/amp/DAC bookshelf Tyler speakers and (horror of horrors) an iPhone with an Auris bluetooth connection for the current audio source. Since bluetooth at best sounds somewhat thin and tilted up on higher frequencies, it doesn’t play necessarily well with the Wadia which is great sounding overall but also can be on the revealing side.

I know I should get a better source - but even so I’ll always want the option of wireless in various situations. I’ve owned Purist Audio Museaus’s (rev-c’s) in the past, which would be perfect, but sadly sold them on A-gon some time ago. Those are hard to find and the newer Purist cables are brighter sounding.

So in a nutshell I’m looking for interconnects which will deepen and darken the sound for my current setup - and new/used for under $400. Any ideas?

re an earlier post on Jeff Day replacing Klee cables with much cheaper Duelund interconnects.

Jeff is a great guy.  I have messages with him often  I am happy the Duelunds worked so well in his system.  To be blunt, they stunk in mine.  RCAs, XLRs, speaker cables, didn't matter.  Maybe they just didn't play well with my PS Audio BHK amp and Wilson Duettes.  That happens sometimes.  I've heard from others they were very bright in their systems as well.

I'm late to the wire party.  I haven't invested big money in interconnects or power cables until recently.  I'm also not foolish enough to think that there aren't some cables that are way overpriced.  However, I'm also not naive enough to think that inexpensive cables are regularly as good as those costing many times more.  While the correlation between price and performance isn't 1 it's not 0 either.
