First and foremost. Make sure your bass is set up for your playing style.
If you are wanting a flatter sound from the brightness you get from steels, maybe you should consider Smith Burners, Slick Rounds or Compressors. Only you know the sound you want to achieve with strings.
Check out all the Smith Bass strings here:

For me, it's Smith Medium Taper Cores: I've experimented with others only to come back to these. Hard to beat.
