All-around great tester. Works for almost every cable you're ever likely to encounter and a snap to use. Don't leave home without it!

Covers All the Bases

Lacks a "hold" function to catch an intermittent problem so you need to keep your eyes on the lights while wiggling the cable you're testing - no big deal. Includes Speakon-type connectors unlike some others. Fair price. Larger than I like for a gig bag but not unreasonable; fine for the shop or studio. Good construction.
