CDP suggestions for bright system?

I'm in the process of upgrading with the cdp as the first priority. Presently, I have an Acurus DIA-100, old Denon DCD-620, old Energy 5.1e's, and DH-Labs cables. It sounds a little bright. I'm looking for a cdp that will smooth out the sound some in the sub~$500 used market. Any suggestions? I've thought about some of the cdp's with the tube output stages, but I'm not sure if that would help or not? Thanks in advance.

Widener,

You might want to try a cal audio DX1 or DX2. They can be had fairly cheap and have a nice warm sound and smooth sound. They also serve as a good transport if you want to upgrade to and outboard dac.
