Default Elixir Strings Are Too Bright, What's Warmer Sounding?

Hi Everyone. I have been using Elixir Nanoweb Phospher Bronze (Light) Strings on all my acoustics for 15 years. But recently, I've felt that they sound too bright - I guess my tastes and preferences are changing.

What do you recommend as being great acoustic guitar strings that last a long time (I hate changing strings!) and sound a bit warmer than Elixirs? Is there a different type of Elixir I should try (such as 80/20 Bronze?) or should I try a completely different brand?

I like that Elixirs last a long time and sound great even after being on a guitar for months.

To be more specific I have a Taylor 814ce, a Taylor 110, a Martin X1-DE, a Gibson G45 and a Washburn parlor guitar (Rosewood).

Any help is appreciated! Thanks!
