RE: Any approach we can make 6h30 warmer and richer?

Warm and rich can be measured. Looking at system frequency response, distortion, and oscillation will tell you a lot.
You may have a system which is too bright being driven well. Sometimes designers counteract the fact that their circuits are being driven by something whimpy that cannot overcome miller capacitance and cable losses, so they make stages bright to compensate. This is not a bad thing in that in can make the total system flatter. When you put a good drive circuit in the mix it can make things bright. You may have to tame the frequency response to warm things up. In olden times there were knobs with the words "Treble" and "Bass" on them. Those were crazy times.
You are making and listening to a system, not a component.
