I think "warm" refers to a more full, robust sound.
"Cold" would mean just the opposite, obviously.

Good representation of the mids and highs, especially mids, is what will lead to a warm sound. Poor representation leads to a cold sound.

x2 mid and low is pretty importmant for producing warm sound. Personally, I like warmer sound than cold when it comes to vocal performance. I think cold sound is good for instrument, not veiling any detail.

This should answer all questions on describing sound (it did for me  ):

A cold sound is when the HIGHS are more pronounced that the other frequencies. A warm sound is when the BASS is more pronounced than the other frequencies.

AFAIK there is no Audio term labeled "Cold". The term I have heard is "Neutral" vs "Warm". Warm tends to mean coloration towards more bass presence and sweeter highs.
I tend to prefer my source gear to be as neutral as possible. That way you can chose speakers/phones with the type of sound signature you want.
