Warm Sounding Cable

I am looking for a cable that is warm sounding.  I don't want bright or detailed, just warm.  I want to change the cable from my Sony HAP-Z1ES Music Server to my Rogue RP-5 Tube Preamp.  I am finding the sound to be a little bright.  Looking for a cable new or used in the 200-300.00 price range.

Perhaps Audio Art Cable IC-3SE with DH Labs RCAs, $320 1M pair new. 170 hours of break-in time to fully settle.

I am a Purist Audio fan and have Neptune Luminist. The least expensive Purist fluid cable is $600 Poseidon, and you won't find it used. Nor will you find older Purist fluid cables. Be careful with Ferox unless it's Dominus, it changes the balance of the cable.

Cable Co. is a great suggestion and has always worked for me.  Some IC's I have found on the warm side are:
