I have been using this for a while and I have had no problems. It a good stethoscope for the price and I would recommend it. Especially if you’re in EMS and the lifelong warranty can go a long way if damaged.

I’ve been in EMS for 16 years so sirens have not helped my hearing. This stethoscope is just as good as the Littman. It’s not as heavy also. Great quality.

Sono un medico internista. Questo stetoscopio è eccellente. Non molto da aggiungere: qualità, robustezza, comfort...

Arbeite sonst mit Littman Stethoskopen, habe das Gefühl, dass dieses Stethoskop von der Auskultationsqualität nur geringfügig schlechter ist als Littman Kardiology II. Bin positiv überrascht.

Super Akustik und weicher, biegsamer Schlauch. Der Ohrbügel könnte etwas strammer sitzen. Macht insgesamt einen sehr wertigen Eindruck.

I am an FNP graduate student. I have been an RN for 9+ years. I have always used an ADC stethoscope. They have a lifetime warranty on all parts. I've only had to use the warranty one time for my oldest stethoscope's earbuds which needed to be replaced. This is the best of all the stethoscopes from ADC that I have tried. It is heavy but compared to the "lite" version the cardiology stethoscope has FAR better sound. This one has the best sound of all my stethoscopes. I don't mind the heaviness for that sake alone. I also love that it comes with an exchangeable pediatric bell. The color and the quality are superb. I love this company.

I had a Littmann Cardiology III stethoscope, and loved it. I have difficulty hearing soft noises, particularly over background noise. As you can imagine, this is not a happy trait for a paramedic. My Cardiology III "disappeared" recently, leaving me without a good 'scope. Having used ADC previously (ADC 615), I knew they made good products. I found the Adscope 601, and it looked like a Cardiology III in the pictures. One of the big selling points for me was that the 601 was about half the price of the Cardiology III. Once I got the 'scope, I found it to be virtually indistinguishable from the Cardiology III. The earpieces are the same, and seal nicely into my ears. The bell is nice and heavy, and I like the dual head, since I deal with a lot of kids. If anything, the tubing is even thicker and heavier than the Littmann. I can hear very well through it, just as well as I could with my Cardiology III. I've let several other medics and EMTs at work listen with it as well, and they all love it. If you're looking for a very solid, very good 'scope at lower cost, and brand recognition isn't that important to you, I'd go with this 'scope. If I could improve it, I may suggest making the tubing a little shorter.

Apparently, I bought this back in 2013, my first ever stethoscope for nursing school, currently a PA.Accoustics: Awesome. I think it is better than littman's classic. The only other stethoscope that I thought was better was littman's master cardio 1. I never used littman's cardio III to compare. Able to pick up murmurs and lung sounds clearly, even through clothing.Ear piece: Very poor. Although it comes with additional ear piece, they are very fragile, rips very easily with use. Littman hands down has better quality ear piece. I recently changed ear piece a month ago and now it has already started to rip. I really like the screw in ear tip though, never falls off.Tubing: Super thick. (I guess expected of cardio tubes?) I don't really have a problem with it though.Head piece: heavy. probably the heaviest one I have used. It still doesn't bother me. The screw-able bell has came off and now it does not fit into the head piece anymore after 3 years of use, so now I just screwed on the pediatric diaphragm on it instead.General: it is a heavy stethoscope that has very good accoustics with poor quality. For the price and the warranty (I didn't know about lifetime warranty until now, I did not sign up and is in need of another stethoscope, so make sure you sign up for the warranty!), I would take this stethoscope vs littmann classic.If anything, save up and buy littman master cardio, it is the best. For budget, I think this one is a good option.

This is a great stethoscope. As an ER nurse and FNP student I was really wanting to get some kind of cardiology stethoscope, and then I found the ADC convertible one. I have always used ADC as they are just as good, if not better, than Littmann. This thing can pick up such great sound, and the fact that your one stethoscope can work with pedi correctly and adults is great. I recommend this for students and seasons nurses/providers/physicians. All those at work that have used it have nothing but good things to say about it. I was skeptical when I purchased a $60.00 stethoscope due to Littmann being so expensive, but it worked out for me!Here are the pro's and con's as I see it.Pros: Convertible (pedi and adult bell), high quality materials, very sturdy, nice length - especially for guys and those who have broad shoulders. Great product. Great price, you can't beat it. Dual lumen tubing on the inside. Multiple frequency via the adult side.Cons: Although it isn't a huge problem, it is quite heavy. The convertible comes with it's down sides as you have to unscrew the pedi portion and screw on the cardiology bell.This is a great product and I truly recommend this for those who work with children and adults. ADC is a great and reliable brand and some of their products are better in my opinion, I do know they tend to last longer in my experience.
