Eko Core vs. other electronic stethoscopes

Hello all - is anyone here have experience with the Eko core? What about other electronic stethoscopes? I have given some thought to it, along with reading a lot of reviews, but would love to hear what others' have experienced with it. I have a Littmann Cardiology IV, which has been pretty good, and does integrate well with Eko from what I read. This is as much a cardiophile thing as it is for work, as I have hearing loss too.

I have one, it's quite nice. Only thing is the sound gets muddy if it's running low on charge, and make sure you've got good even contact with the patient's skin, not half on and half off. It does integrate nicely with the cardio 4.

Stemoscope is a good all in one stethoscope for recording and storing heart sounds.

I have an old Cardiomart (Littmann clone) cardio steth, already s decent steth, that I souped up with an Eko. It served me well when I stethed a woman with 38DD breasts. I could hear everything inside her chest and abdomen with beautiful clarity.

I ended up purchasing an Eko CORE for my Cardiology IV; felt the benefits for work (hospital) outweighed the cost.

Pros:

- definitely works really well, especially on either larger patients or if there is noise in the background.

- The amplification at baseline is actually where I am at most of the time, and if needed I only go up 1 or 2 clicks (which is uncommon).

- It is not as bulky as some of the Reddit posts I've seen make it out to be.

Cons:

- the bluetooth connectivity could be better. I have awesome bluetooth hearing aids, but the delay from the Eko is enough to where I get some annoying reverberation at times if I port the sound through to my hearing aids. I've been taking them out while auscultating and just amplifying through the Eko (which is annoying but not really that big of a deal).

Overall happy customer. Thanks for all the input!

I have one, but dont use the attatchment. I use the stethoscope without it. But i think it is because i dont know how to use it as i should. And you can not share the sound from it, unless the other person have one themselves, i think.

But i wonder how the new EKO is? Anyone that have tried that one?
