i may not have a lot of experience on the topic but i feel that this stethoscope is very nice. incredible sound exclusion with the bi-lumen and thick tubes and hush-puppy ear-tips the interchangeable heads are very nice too. worked great even in a noisy classroom. nice stereo sound like from a Sprague but w/o the tube noise. definitely recommend

I had a Littman stethoscope for more than 20 years but had to replace it when the tubing became stiff and inflexible. I purchased a Littman Cardiology III and was very dissatisfied with the feel of the earpieces in my ears. Fortunately, I lost it about a year after purchasing it, so I was at a quandry at which stethoscope to buy next. As an NP student, I needed quality without a huge pricetag. I believe I have found that in the ADC Adscope 601. I received as advertised a brand new scope in the mail well packaged and protected. It has a very solid feel without being heavy. To test it, I placed it on my palm and gently touched the back of my hand and I could hear clearly the light contact through my stethoscope! Best yet, I can reposition the earpieces if I need to, just like one of the other more expensive brands. According to ADC, there are 2 springs in theirs allowing some repositioning by the wearer. Though I didn't need to make any adjustments, I am glad I can. So far, I am very pleased with the look, feel, and quality of my new stethoscope--especially when one considers the difference in cost from the other two.
Affordable alternative to Littmann

I used to own a Littmann classic stethoscope and seemed to have lost it at some random hotel I was travelling through. Anyway, losing it prompted me to look for another stethoscope and I figured I would explore another brand this time.

PERFORMANCE: When stethoscope companies label a stethoscope as a "cardiology" stethoscope it typically is because of the thicker tubing, presumably causing more sound insulation so that you can hear "heart sounds" better. This model offered acceptable sound insulation although I cannot say without a doubt that it offers better acoustics than other models.

PRICE: Cardiology stethoscopes from Littmann cost at minimum 120$ so this model can be purchased at almost half the price. A really big plus.

AESTHETICS: The massive tubing gives the stethoscope a high quality feel but the ear buds are made of PVC just like the tubing which makes them uncomfortable for the ears. To my knowledge Littmann just uses "regular" rubber for their ear buds.

OVERALL: Virtually identical performance for nearly half the price, I recommend this model with the exception of the uncomfortable ear buds.

P.S. I am a first year resident in Internal Medicine if you were wondering what I am using this for.



As good as the Littman cardiology

I'm very surprised at how good this stethoscope is. My Littman died after 10 years, and this was a great less expensive replacement.
Excellent product

Reviewer: P. Wilson,
The large variety of ages and sizes of patients in Pediatrics (1 day-17yrs) makes this stethoscope invaluable. It's held up to the cleansing wipes we use
and the sound quality is excellent. What I missed using an "adult" scope on
the littlest ones, is now much easier to hear. This stethoscope stands up
to the Littmann and it's cheaper. Now, when ADC reduces the weight of the head and includes truly small ear pieces I'll get 5 stars.
