When getting a warm sound, understanding the difference between flat and round wound strings is important. Generally, when bass strings are made, each bass string has a core which then has wire wrapped around it to complete the string. In a flat wound string this wire is flat and in a round wound string, this wire is round.

Flats have a duller more mellow sound and round wounds sound much more aggressive with a lot more clarity and bite.

Both can give you a great warm sound but the key thing to note here is that flats will be the most mellow (or even dull) sounding option and rounds will be much brighter. I would suggest experimenting with both or even doing some research on players you like to see what they used. Once you know this you can incorporate this knowledge into your purchase. This is about developing your own taste in strings after all.

Finally, you should understand the difference between nickel and stainless steel bass strings. Nickel tends to produce more midrange and is associated with a much more vintage sound. If you want an older style or to sound like an older generation of band/musician then nickel might be the way to go.

Stainless steel, on the other hand, creates much more low end and highs. This creates more of a natural scooped mid sound making the strings sound a little more modern and a little less growly.
