I use the Tester to check all the mic and speaker lines at our church. I love the versatility. You can test 6 different type of cables.

Comments about Ebtech SWIZZ-CT Cable Tester:
I bought this product to test audio cables. I make cables and this little box has really come in handy. Much faster than testing with a DMM. The test tones are an added bonus.

Comments about Ebtech SWIZZ-CT Cable Tester:
This cable tester is a handy tool which makes troubleshooting and repair much easier. The only thing to watch out for is a fragile component (one of the internal chips is easily damaged by temperature or motion) - which is a known issue at the Ebtech factory. The first one delivered wasn't working, which is how I learned about it. It was replaced right away, and the one I'm using now has had no problems.

Comments about Ebtech SWIZZ-CT Cable Tester:
Well I started testing some cables but got bored because I already knew the worked. So I got out some old cables, they worked too. So I had to know if this thing actually worked. I started roughing up some old RCA, midi, and 1/4 TS cables.
Eventually I had some bad cables. Kind of an odd way to test the device but it was worth it.
Would have been nice to see an RJ45 tester on it since they are becoming more common in music production.

Nice sturdy construction, heavier than I expected. Not any instructions for it, confusing to understand to start.
