Well,
I usually make my own cables and have found that a lighter gage cable, 22 to 24, works well for my phono. The signal is lower in level than your normal line level and I believe that the higher gage is friendlier to the signal.
That being said, most cable manufactures have this in mind when they manufacture their phono cables. They "are" specific to the needs of the phono level. Also, they may do some special sheilding, since phono levels are more prone to EMI and RF.
However, if you are having no problem with the unshielded Kimber and you enjoy the sound I would stick with it.
Just make sure you have your table grounded.
