ABOUT: Littmann Classic III Vs Littmann Cardiology IV
Hi there.....
The age old question...
Which stethoscope should I buy?
The truth is, it depends on a number of things:
How much money are you willing to spend?
At what stage are you in your Nursing journey?
What kind of Nursing do you do?
Do you wear it around your neck all day?
Either way, I've done my best to help you along the way.
Here is a quick video outlining the main aspects and differencesbetween the Littmann Cardiology IV and the Littmann Classic III.

It's a super quick video, great visualisation of the differences!
I hope you like it,

I am a mbbs 3rd year student from india what will be perfect for me and from where i shall get the genuine littmann product?
Hi..which one would you recommend for medical students?
Out of these two you could go either way. If you want to start of and not spend the big bucks straight away, the Classic III would do you nicely. It’s when you start listening to subtle heart sounds and murmurs that a cardiology IV would be more helpful. But to start learning how to use the stethoscope, I think you’d be more than fine with a Classic III. Some people prefer the Classic III too because it’s lighter.
Hi nurse Jenny thank you for this video! For a new nursing student which one of these would you recommend? Or if their is another you would recommend for a student I would love to know thank you!
Hi Jessica Reed! As a Nursing student I don’t really think you need to spend the money for a Cardiology IV. The Littmann Classic III would do just fine. But then if you still don’t want to spend that much money, the Littmann Lightweight II SE is awesome value for money and great acoustics! The MDF 777 is also really good and similar price range as the Classic III. Again, it really depends on how much you want to spend. If you have the money to invest - go for it. If you just want something to get you through Nursing school, the Littmann Lightweight would so just fine in my opinion.
Hope that helps! Let me know if you have any other questions 🤗
Thanks so much nurse Jenny that definitely gives me some ideas to narrow down too! Keep the videos coming your awesome! 😘😘
Jessica Reed Thank you!! 🥰
Very nicely explained. Thank you. I'm newly graduated MBBS student and about to start my internship as a medical house officer in a couple of weeks. I just wanted to ask which will be better for me classic III or cardiology IV?
Are you well aware that you're asking from a nurse
@@HeyDoc how does that matter?
Hi Vanessa! What is the best for auscultation? I have a little difficulty hearing sounds, do you advise cardiology? I'm in the 2nd year of medicine, what is the advantage of cardiology IV? Only if I'm a cardiologist, which is better?
Hi Antonio! 😊
The Cardiology IV has got dual lumen tubing which means there is less rubbing sounds and clearer acoustics to each ear. I’d probably recommend you get the Cardiology IV especially if you are hard of hearing. The dual lumen tubing makes the acoustics just a step crisper and clear. And if you’re in your 2nd year I’m guessing there’ll be a lot more cardiac assessments to come. Hope that helps! 👍✌️🌷
Nurse Jenny
Thank you for your videos....
Iam a medical student,
Which type you advise me?
Hi there!
I would say it depends on where you are in your studies, how much money you’re prepared to spend and personal preference! For example if you are in the beginning of your studies and just starting to learn how to use the stethoscope, a Classic III would be more than enough. It is also cheaper, not as heavy as the cardiology IV and personally for me, the one I prefer. On the other hand, if you are learning to listen to specific heart sounds, then a cardiology IV may be of preference. With the dual lumen tubing it just has that little bit crisper sound. But like I mentioned, it is heavy and quite expensive. They are both great stethoscopes. I have seen medical students and doctors with both stethoscopes, but I’ve probably seen more with a cardiology type stethoscope around their neck. Hope that helps! 😁👍 Thank you for watching!
Which do you recommend for an adult oncology nurse?
Hi. What would you suggest for a doctor who's going to start practicing??
Hi Rowena! I think you would be fine initially with a Classic III but I know most doctors end up with a cardiology stethoscope once you start listening to heart murmurs and other cardiac sounds. The Classic III is much cheaper than the cardiology IV too and its certainly enough to start learning on but if you don’t mind spending the money you could go a cardiology IV straight up. Hope that helps! 👍🙏☺️
Hiii Jenny, is cardiology Iv good for respiratory auscultation or just best for cardio examen? Thanks jenny.
I like the video to much😍😍😍😍
Hi there! Would be perfect for respiratory auscultation as well 👌👍
Hi, just wondering which one would you recommend for a student in respiratory therapy?
Hi Vanessa! I think you would be just fine with a Classic III. It’s a good one to start learning with and then if you find that you’d like a Cardiology stethoscope you could ask for one as a graduation gift cause they are more expensive! 😁
@@NurseJenny thank you so much!
You’re so welcome Vanessa! 🤗
I wish you did a coparison between the cardialogy IV and the Master cardiology.....I am between those two....
In your detailed reviews, who has scored a 50/50?
Cost difference ??
Hi there, when I purchased these stethoscopes I paid $100 USD for the Littmann Classic III and $180 USD for the Littmann Cardiology IV. Thanks for watching! 😁🙏 Jenny
Hi nurse Jenny, I'm a NP student and I already own the classic III. I'm thinking of replacing it/getting a second stethoscope. Should I go for the cardiology IV? Haven't decided what area I will be working in. My next rotation will be in cardiac surgery (but that's only for a few months). Thanks!
Hi there!
What's the reason you want to upgrade? Do you want better acoustics, different style? It depends on what you're after, spending the money on a good quality cardiology stethoscope (if you have the money) is never a bad idea I think. That's if you don't mind that they are a little bit heavier. There are other brands that have cardiology stethoscopes such as Littmann, ADC Adscope, Welch Allyn. Seeing as you are going into a rotation in cardiology and you've already had a single lumen tube stethoscope in the Classic III, maybe not a bad idea to try a cardiology one. Just shop around, there are differences in prices in the different brands! Thank you so much for watching and good luck in NP school :)
Jenny
@@NurseJenny Thank you so much for your detailed reply! My old stethoscope is still working fine but I had gotten it second hand and was thinking of treating myself to a new one :) I will definitely keep in mind your response! Thanks again for being responsive and making these informative videos!
Not a problem, here to help! 👍🤗
No way! Im an MD. Finally (18 yrs) replaced the 3 w the 4 bc the tubing was rock hard. The tubing got loose on rt hear, which depending on my body angle it worked some. The coronavirus cleaning tools torched the diaprham off (dont care about spell check right now. Work was insane. The 4 comes in a 22 length size, sorta wish I would have gotten it. I do not wear mine across my neck like a douche. Got the chromish looking bell. Looks a little too fruity in real life. Im mad at the peds diaphragm it has to go. I will get that sucker off.
To answer your question. Worry about putting up with cocky cardiologists. They are smug as urologists.
Edit: get your arm muscles as strong as possible. W
You will be pinned against the anesthesia curtain, screamed at for 12 hrs no break. If things go bad lots of cursing and blood spattering everywhere. That was a lost cause. Lost 120 units I blood on that nightmare. A resident came and saved me after 12-14 hrs.
Which would you recommend for veterinary school ?
Hi Carley!
I can't say that I know anything about the animal world in a medical way but if veterinary school is anything like nursing school then I think you would be well off with a Classic III to start with :)
Thanks for watching!
Nurse Jenny
Nurse Jenny Thank you so much ☺️
My gf is a med student and i'd like yo give her one of these stethoscopes. Which one would you recommend me if she's in 2nd year on career?
Classic III
Love the color of classic III ....
That's one of the best reviews I have ever heard
Thank you Jewel 😍
Hello Nurse Jenny, Im wondering what would be a good gift for an LVN but continuing to study to be RN. Is the classic III enough ?
Mark Jason Bernardo Yes, the Classic III would be good enough 😊👌
Hi, there! Congrats on the video. Do you happen to know if the Cardiology III and IV share the same rim and diafragms size. I need to replace the fixation rim on the III but only get to find the repair kit for the IV. Thanks a bunch for your help! Cheers
Hi Robert! Yes, the two that I have share the same size ☺️ so you should be fine with the Cardiology IV Kit 👍 Thanks for watching! 🙏😁
Out of all the ones you have ever reviewed which one has gotten the highest scores all around?
I think simply score-wise it is the Littmann Classic IV however, it is quite expensive and heavy around the neck. A bit too short for my liking too. I personally don’t have to listen to much heart sounds so a cardiology stethoscope (dual lumen tubing) is a bit more than I need. I am completely fine with a single lumen stethoscope 🩺 and there are many different brands such as Littmann, ADC Adscope, MDF, Welch Allyn and Björn Hall (my own brand so completely biased 😆). You just have to find what price point, design and look that you are going for. Hope that helps, let me know if you have any other questions 🌷 Nurse Jenny
Hey which one would you recommend for 3rd year medical student ?
Hi Sabiha! 👋
I usually suggest to the first year medical students to get a Classic III first, to learn how to use the stethoscope and see what they like and don't like and then once they start listening to heart sounds (not sure when that is for medical school) to get a cardiology stethosope (dual lumen).
It's not easy to spend a lot of money on a stethoscope when you're a student either which is why a Classic III is a great alternative to start off with. Being in 3rd year you might be better off getting a cardiology stethosope but I would also suggest you check out some other brands that also have cardiology stethoscopes such as MDF, ADC Adscope and ERKA Finesse to name a few.
I find the cardiology stethoscopes have amazing acoustics but they are heavy around my neck and for what I use it for (mainly blood pressures, resp assessments, bowel assessment) the Classic III type stethosopes are more than fine. If you have impaired hearing you might be better off with a cardiology stethoscope just beacuse the dual lumen gives you that slight added clearness to the sound. And if you are going to go down the cardiology route, best to get a cardiology (dual lumen) stethoscope.
Hope that helps! Good luck in your studies 😁
Nurse Jenny
Tq so much Jenny for your advice its very helpful to me 🤗
@@NurseJenny thank you so much nurse jenny! you answered my question too. i'm going to the third year of medicine and i love cardiology (ง ° ͜ ʖ °) ง. perhaps cardiology is the best
I’m an EMT student. I’m wondering if the acoustics are dramatically different between the 2. I’m worried about hearing lung sounds in the back on the ambulance, but I’m not sure I’m ready to invest almost $200 in the cardiology if they’re that similar. Any advice?
Hi Ruthie! I think you'd be just fine with a Classic III. I know lots of EMT's who have just that and think it's great. Do the cardiology stethoscopes have a little better acoustics - yes. But is it enough for the amount of money you have to pay - maybe not. So no, I wouldn't say the acoustics are dramatically different but the price sort of is. Hope that helps Ruthie!
Nurse Jenny
@@NurseJenny Thanks Jenny!
Оба хорошие. Бери оба. У меня 3. Я довольна. Скоро приобрету кардиолоджи 4.=
This was 3 years ago. Do you still work in the field? And if so, what kind of stethoscope are you using now?
Hi Nurse Jenny!
Which would you recommend for a dialysis nurse? Thank you so much! ☺️💕
Hi Mila! I think you could really go either one of the Cardiology IV or the Classic III. I guess you won’t be trying to listen to subtle heart murmurs that much so a cardiology IV may be a bit more than what you need but if you don’t mind spending the extra money and the extra weight, then by all means! I think you’d be just fine with a Classic III though 😊 hope that helps Mila! 💗 Jenny
@@NurseJenny Thank you! :) Your input is very helpful! Much appreciated Nurse Jenny!
What do you think about the mdf sprague brand?
Hi Zahra 👋☺️
I haven’t tried MDF’s Sprague but I have had a sprague-type stethoscope in the past and I really liked the acoustics but thought the whole stethoscope was wayy too heavy and cumbersome. But yes, great acoustics as it is essentially dual lumen tubing 👍
@@NurseJenny thank you.. much love from The Gambia🇬🇲
You’re welcome! From Australia 🇦🇺 ☺️☺️
I have both. However I did not see much of a difference between the 2.
Sound-wise they are pretty close! Sometimes hard to even tell with the human ear. Otherwise it’s just the weight of the stethoscope and thickness of the tubing. And the price! Lol 😆
Please guide me i have post graduate exam in internal medicine
I have classic 3
Should i buy crdlgy 4 any opinion
Hi Akashi! I think you’ll be fine with a Classic III. The Cardiology IV have just that little bit more crisp sound so if you’re worried you’re not hearing properly with the Classic III then maybe consider the cardiology IV. Good luck in your exam! ☺️🍀🩺😀
Thanks madam
Isn’t the cardiology 7 year warranty not 6?
kyle atkinson that’s correct, thanks for letting me know!
Im a medical student at 5th year and with internal medicine ill need one , is class 3 enough and will be good for the posgraduate studies too ? Or should i go for the class 4 ?
classic III is more than enough
Rami Kourdi I agree, tha Classic III would be good enough for sure. It’s up to you though, the cardiology IV have just that little bit more crisp sound but it’s more expensive and on the heavier side. 👍

Do you recommend using wd 40 on the tubing to prevent the tubing from getting stiff from body oils on the neck?
S B No I wouldn’t recommend putting anything on your stethoscope that hasn’t been recommended by the manufacturer. I’ve never heard of putting wd 40 on your stethoscope 😊
What about for PA school?
isamieh The Classic III would be fine but again, the cardiology IV has dual lumen tubing and that little bit more crisp sound. It is however more expensive and heavy around the neck. Both would work!
