Tunable Diaphragm Technology

The Littmann Classic III features tunable diaphragms that allow the user to hear different frequency sounds by changing the pressure applied to the chestpiece. Light pressure emphasizes lower-frequency sounds, while firmer pressure emphasizes higher-frequency sounds. This allows convenient auscultation without removing and repositioning the chestpiece.

Dual-Sided Chestpiece

The two-sided chestpiece provides versatility for routine assessment. The adult side features a larger diaphragm, while the smaller pediatric side can be used for smaller or thin patients and can also be converted to an open bell by removing the diaphragm and replacing the rim.

Comfortable for Everyday Clinical Use

Designed with healthcare professionals and students in mind, the Classic III combines a lightweight construction with soft-sealing ear tips and an adjustable headset. The tubing is made without natural rubber latex or phthalate plasticizers, while its flexible construction is designed for regular clinical use.
