Ohoh! That's why I love my Littmann Lightweight! And mine is (Currently) in lilac. :]
 
My girlfriend just got me a Littmann classic ii se to congratulate me for passing my basic exam. I love it so far. :)
 
Personally, I'm diggin my Pure tone. Got to listen to one compared to a Classic II before I bought it, had me sold. sounds great in the truck.
 
I have a Cardiology III and I looooooooooove it. When I first started I used the inexpensive ones supplied and I always had a hard time with BPs and lung sounds. Then for a job I was loaned a Cardiology III and I fell in love with it. I didn't have the money for one initially, so I bought a Classic II which was pretty good up until I was stolen. By that time I had enough for the Cardiology III, which I bought in all black and had engraved.

The GrX's clone of the Littmann Cart III at $32 shipped is great enough for me. Works great for everything I need it for and is cheap enough to abuse and lose compared to the true Littmann B) For less than the price of 1 Littmann I can get 2 near clones and use for my 2 bags and don't have to keep swapping or carrying a scope around

I have a Littmann Classic II S.E.. I love it; good acoustics, durable, easy to maintain and its a mid-range stethoscope for price. All the pretty colors make it easy to tell which one is yours!

I've been trying to learn cardiac sounds and the classic is not the greatest to say the least. My partner uses a Littman Master Classic and its a pretty good scope and there are a number of medics around here with Cardiology III's and STC's. Every now and then I see a welch allyn but Littmann is pretty well the standard.

I'm still trying to learn to hear lung sounds in a moving ambulance going 120 kmh on a rural road.:wacko:
 
Littmann Classic II S.E.

it was a gift because spending 80 bucks on stethoscope is insane
although its great compare to 5 $ ones we have in rigs
 
Whichever one is closest. You can have the "super-delux stethoscope master 5000" but if you don't know how to use it properly, it won't matter.
 
Yes, but if you DO know how to use it properly, the "super-delux stethoscope master 5000" is going to be much more useful than whichever one is closest ;)
