If you can stretch above hero, that's a good recommendation, the Select 1011 with wbt 0108 is outstanding. Warm, fullbodied, smooth but plenty detailed. The best attribute is the pitch definition in the bass region, just outstanding.
i have auditioned kimber select, i have owned kimber pbj and auditioned kimber hero. i would stay away from all of them, given your characterization of the cdp player.
none of the kimber cables are warm. warm is a coloration. kimber aims for neutrality.
call them up and ask them what their philosophy is.
it is very hard to find warm cables. no designer will admit to deliberately producing a colored cable.
