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?

Has anyone compared AZ Silver Reference II, AZ Matrix Reference II, Nordost Red Dawn and Magnan Vi?
I am familiar with all but Magnan.
Is this one worth looking into?
It seems Magnan has radically different design, high impedance, and may be a good choice to connect source to pre-amp?

I think in the end I will go with Red Dawn and tame it with other type of IC up in the chain.
SPM somehow did not work well for me.
