Stethoscope

I'm sure this topic has been beat to death on this forum, but I'm having trouble accessing over half of the threads on this topic!

I work on a medical inpatient unit, and I'm in the market for a new stethoscope. I have been using the Littman Classic SE scope, but I find that in spite of having things adjusted properly, in the noisy hospital settings I cannot discern the sounds I need. I've seen rave reviews on the Ultrascopes/Maxiscopes and also on the Littman Cardiology III, but before I invest my money, I'm looking for some input.

Any advice you can offer is greatly appreciated!

    Cardio III is fantastic. Much easier to hear in noisy environments than the classic. I have tried a friend's ultrascope and prefer the littmanns.

    I have a Littman Master Classic--not as pricy as the cardiology lines, but more sensitive, to me, than the Classic II SE. But the Littman Cardiology line is probably your best bet for best hearing.
