Buying Stethoscope

Hey everyone. I am just curious as to what part of your chest do you like the stethoscope on and what is your favorite kind of stethoscope? How many of you actually own a stethoscope?

Love

They're always cold regardless of cost.

I have a Littman and a Sprague, and I can't honestly say which one I like better. Before, I would have gone with Sprague, but you're supposed to be able to hear better with a Littman because there's only one tube through which all the sound travels.

I'm trying to find a decent steth at a reasonable price. any brand i should consider?

Try EBAY. I own about 7 different stethoscopes that I was able to bid on EBAY. A dealer was selling a bunch of medical equipment and I got the whole lot for $30.US.

Under the left breast (male or female) is the best place to listen.

My fiance and I have a Littman, which she got from a uniform store she worked it-when she wears her pink scrubs with that steth around her neck it turns me on so much. No favorite place to place in on the chest, but like another said,under the left breast is clearest for listening.

I have a regular littman. I like to do thorough auscultations of women. lungs, all over the back lateral and front of the chest and cardiac aortc, pulmonary, ticuspid and mitral areas.

I own 6 stethoscopes. One is an ultrascope, which is pretty cool but not the best scope ever, and the others are all Littmanns. I have two Classic II SE's, two Master Classics, and a Cardiology III. Of course, I need them for work, not just play, so I need to have a nice collection. 😉

I own 3:

Omron Sprague-Rappaport

Generic nurse stethoscope

Knockoff Cardiology stethoscope

I like the Omron the best.

I have two of them, a sprague-type and a Kamed simple double-sided chestpiece one.

The sprague looks great, but has a quite shitty sound quality on the diaphragm side, but the bell works perfect.

The other one is good quality sound-wise, but not as good as Littmans..

My girlfriend has a Littman Classic S.E and I always get excited even when I just see it... I tried it and it has a superb sound quality...

The bell mode can amplify the heartbeat in a really loud way, when my heart is racing it makes me like deaf. So cool.

Have to get one.

Anybody has some idea where to get it under 60 dollars? I am in Europe and it is really expensive...

Probably need to try ebay...

Hi everyone first i,d like to say how happy and excited i am about finding this site ever since i was a kid i,ve had this wild heartbeat and stethoscope fetish i was beginning to think i was a bit strange buying stethoscopes and examining my heart rate and even going to every doctor i could with my fake palpitations just to feal there steth against my chest i,d love to hear from anyone to share steth fantasys and experiences...

I cant use the stehoscope of my boyfriend. He is a medical student. 😉

I have about 5 different ones, mostly litman, i have Litman Master Classic II SE with bell and diaphragm combined, lovely heart sounds, very good for my work, also Master caridiology, very heavy, but doesnt 'look right' for play, the others are cheap, useless ones that i have acquired as i progressed through my career, the more experienced i got, the better the steth had to be. For play, i also love the feel of the tubing rubbing over my nipples, and its got to be black, turns me on!

I have a prestige, littman, and sprague. I prefer my littman. I bought all of eBay for pretty cheap.

I have lithman cardiologique SE

I have four different ones.

Beside some basic models, I have the full line of conventional littmann stethoscopes (classic, master, cardio, master cardio,),

I have an ultrascope (not that great), a tycos cardiology (compares to littmann) and tycos triple head (cool look and great sounds).

and finally, the famous original hewlett-packard rappaport which I like the most: sound, comfort and look 😃

I have always been partial to Litman, but have a vintage Sprague as well.

I have a sprague for a spare i have a littman classic2se for play and a mastercardiolgy for work the sprague is blk the classice2se is red and the cardiolgy is teal

I just have a basic Litman with red tubing.

Doesn't exactly sound amazing but it is fine for a basic exam and it certainly makes me feel the part when worn with a lab coat or scrubs. Most Female play partners prefer me to wear it in Army Medic mode with Dessert Fatigues and a red cross arm-band though. At ease!

As it's just a cheap model the best place to get a strong sound is at the lower left of the chest – Just below the left breast on a lady – around the Mitral and Tricuspid valves.

SFS

I own two Sprague type

I own an sprague one.

i use it in all my exams, it soo cool!

Littmann Cardiology II

At this moment I have three stethoscopes. I have a cheap black tube, the first I bought with my first blood pressure cuff. It’s a good stethoscope and I have had a lot of fun with it.

My second stethoscope it’s a good sprage navy blue tube I bught some tome ago. It’s a very good stethoscope and I really recommend every one to have a sprage with two separated tubes. To auscultate the heart with it it’s an awesome experience, and it’s very easy to use it.

And finally I have my top stethoscope, Littman Classic II with red tube. This is my best stethoscope and I love to use it. The sounds of the heart are clear and it’s absolutely great to use it.

When I play with them with my girlfriend, I love to auscultate her lungs while she takes deep breaths. I love to put my stethoscope on her back side to side, up to down. Then she lies on the bed and I auscultate her heart while I am taking her pulse. I like very much to place the stethoscope in the five classical places, but my favourite is the apex under the left breast.

Mine is a Littman.

Have always owned and been partial to Littmans. They are truly the gold standard of stethoscopes.

I have a Cardiomart brand cardiology steth, which is an off brand copy of the Littmann Cario II and a very good steth. I recently examined my friend Ami, a very petite 25 year old woamn, second time I've examined her. Her little heart sounded magnificent and LOUD, especially when I lifted her breast and listened at the apex. Good steth and a sweet young lady with a ticker that likes to show off for the stethoscope--doesn't get any better. The steth I have was about $35 on eBay.

I also love to listen and make me listen to your heart with a stethoscope.

I too have a stethoscope to your usgule bought on ebay for that price

Has anyone here ever encountered or used a triple-head stethoscope?

I have seen the triple head cardio steths but have never had one used on me and never had the opportunity to listen through one. Would like to try one out on my favorite little patient Ami.
