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?

czarivey, I agree with you on both accounts.
I believe most (inorganic) things can be explained by math (and physics) and so of course I am skeptical of audiophile products that require a large amount of advertising and a groundswell of support on forums to develop a cadre of believers.  Years of participating in this hobby, and working with various well-regarded manufacturers who have helped me purchase and modify my gear, has only increased my skepticism.
Regarding boxing, Mike Tyson said it pretty well,

Ok rotarius, I failed to see that your point focused on intellectual property.  Your post seemed more interested in discussing your politics of denouncing corporations and executives who
all they care about is the results at the end of the quarter and their own bonuses
and
how  quality suffers, ..... but by then these guys have moved on
You seemed to know exactly how corporate executives think and how they line their pockets on the backs of
the poor bloke who makes 5 bucks a day
Especially in audio, there are many companies whose owners stay the course through thick and thin, over many years and, while they may make compromises and even outsource to meet market pressures, still stand behind their products and maintain quality.

In America, at the end of the day, the consumer votes with their wallet.  Corporations who do not provide value typically do not survive the competition.
