Kimber Kable PBJ Interconnect Cable - RCA to RCA - Single

Recommended Component 2024 – Stereophile

Highly Affordable Cable with "Clarity, Detail, Depth, and Presence"

The highly acclaimed PBJ interconnect exhibits simple, elegant construction incorporating proven tri-braid field geometry, VariStrand™, Hyper-pure copper conductors and extruded fluorocarbon dielectric.

PBJ has become a classic with performance that continues to be unmatched by competing cables. Tonally balanced with clear, articulate highs, accurate midrange, tight extended bass, and three dimensional soundstaging are common descriptions echoed by surprised reviewers and satisfied customers.

"Recommended Component" Honors

Stereophile honored PBJ by awarding it the magazine's coveted Recommend Component status for 2024.

According to Stereophile, "Originally released in the late 1980s, PBJ is a minimalist design comprising three high-quality, multistrand wires in individual Teflon jackets, braided together and terminated with Kimber's Ultraplate connectors. With the PBJs in his system, SM heard greater clarity, detail, depth, and presence."

In his Secrets of Home Theater and High Fidelity review, John E. Johnson, Jr. writes, "Kimber PBJ… has been one of my favorites for many years. It is beautifully made… is relatively inexpensive, and sounds great."
