    The PPJ's are good quality and good sounding cables.

    I figured you must have got them and liked them when I saw your ad in the Flea Market. I think my AQ's may end up there soon also. I really like the PBJ's.

    I really like the flexibility. I have to handle the AQ like it was glass fiber optic. Needed something alittle more robust.

    That's exactly what it means. It was Kimber's way of saying they're "workin mans" cables, so to speak. PBJ. They even used to come in sandwich bags to reduce costs. No kidding!
