Fw: [RC] Best Sound Magnifying Stethescope? - Linda Marins

Aha!  Found it!  I had exactly the same question five years
ago (mare with virtually undetectable heartbeat) and this is
the answer Linda Flemmer sent me and Ridecamp.

I've been looking for a Klippert ever since.  Still haven't found
one :-(.  I use one of Roger Rittenhouse's hand-held HRMs
when I've really *got* to know.

Linda,

While they are EXTREMELY hard to find, Klippert
stethoscopes amplify like nobody's business and have a
seal around the diaphragm that cuts out background
noise (like wind, voices, etc.)  Think of a dixie cup
with a bubble-shaped plastic diaphragm in it.

I don't know what they cost now - 9 years ago I got a
low end one for around $50 and a GOOD one for $90.

is known to be particularly good at picking up and
magnifying the sound of heart beats
