## Overview

The dbx CT2 Cable Tester is a professional-grade, battery-powered device designed for rapid and reliable testing of a wide range of audio cables. Featuring a 6-position rotary selector with individual LEDs, it supports multiple connector types including Speaker Twist, XLR, Banana, and more. Its rugged build and loud continuity beeper make it ideal for on-stage and studio use, ensuring quick diagnostics and minimal downtime for audio professionals.

## Description

We all know how frustrating and time consuming it can be when your audio cables fail. With the dbx CT2 cable testing unit you can now evaluate a large variety of your cables with ease. The CT2 offers many common connectors such as Speaker Twist, XLR, Phono, BNC, DIN, TRS, TS, DMX, & Banana. The CT2 allows for testing cables even with different connectors at each end. For example, it is simple to test a TRS to XLR cable. With well illuminated LED indicators and a simple rotary dial, users can quickly establish whether a cable is wired and functioning correctly, or if it is dead and in need of repair.

Review: I like that it's continuity test is always ready to go, unlike my multimeter which takes a (admittedly short) moment to get ready -- those moments are precious. I keep the cables connected and wrapped around the unit. Louder beep too (far more likely to hear behind stage at a concert in "save the show scenarios") Nice construction, like a solid DI box. Easy to understand switch and display (unlike others which require some sort of knowledge of intergalactic cyphers to interpret!). Something reassuring about the sexy dbx logo too. I would get again!
Review: This tester quickly made me forget several other inexpensive hand-held testers I already had. The variety of connectors is outstanding for a tester at this price point. The individual indicator lights for each wire in a multi-wire cable is really useful. Plus it has a simple set of banana jacks for test leads to allow testing any cable which isn't already supported by dedicated connectors. I have a lot of different hobbies which all involve wiring or cables of some sort. I bought this so I could carry a single more professional quality tester instead of three different cheaper hand-held testers. It has been great in that role, but I did add a few things to make it work for every situation I needed. If you are like me, you may need to gender adapters to test some specific cables. In addition to the test probe leads, I also picked up two additional sets of test leads with alligator clips and micro-clips on the ends. Getting those items were an extra expense, but even with that expense, this tester is a bargain compared to many others costing two to ten times as much with mostly similar capabilities. The extra bits I added increased my satisfaction with this tester, but added more to carry, too. For me, how you pack up all of this to carry with you makes a big difference in your satisfaction, too. To make all of this easier to carry, I picked up a waterproof hard shell case super cheap from my local "harbor." The inside had customizable foam to protect and hold things in place. I put this cable tester, the three sets of test leads I wanted, as well as four different gender changer adapters, and two extra sets of batteries into the case. I pulled out some of the foam to make form-fitted spots for each item inside the case. A big waterproof label on the outside of the case was the last touch. This setup gives me an easy to carry "grab-and-go" test setup that is amazingly flexible in what it can do. I highly recommend doing the same with the one you buy! Five stars!
