A warm DAC?

Help me pair a DAC with my Prima Luna integrated, Focal 1038 be and PS Audio Perfect Wave transport...Speakers are quite detailed. Looking to level out the high end. Prefer analog warmth. No interest in streaming, expect to use for CD play only...budget $2500.

I'm thrilled to see that bo "summarized" his thoughts without addressing the OP's question.

An update... I was able to locate and purchase a used PS Audio PW DAC to pair with my PW transport...:} Unfortunately, my friends at FedEx dropped the box and destroyed the DAC... back to the drawing board!

Used Bryston BDA-3. 
The Mytek and Benchmark DACs will be the opposite of what you’re looking for.

I see a few BDA- 2 units for sale...Going into this with no intention of streaming... I wonder if the sonic performance is close of the newer BDA 3?
