Does the CT-3 have a built in speaker or a headphone jack to monitor incoming line/mic level audio signals?
In addition to its onboard lights, the dbx CT-3 Advanced Cable Tester uses a test tone generator which sends signal out of the jacks on the left side of the unit. The Test Tone generator is strong enough to drive certain devices directly for testing without additional power. For example, a speaker may be directly connected to the CT3 and the 1KHZ tone may be heard from the speaker. Headphones can be directly driven, as well as telephone lines. The unit does not have a built-in speaker.
