As an EMT, there is an added challenge when it comes to scopes. Sound quality of scopes is definitely important, but even more so when you are working in a loud environment. Listening for BP and lung sounds in the back of a diesel truck is difficult at best. A good scope is extremely important.

The Master Classic II scope is by far the best scope I have used for this purpose. The amplification is extremely good, single tube design eliminates the "static" of the tubes rubbing together, and the ear pieces do a great job of blocking out ambient noise. The scope feels very well constructed, and bell has a good weight to it, which makes it easier to handle. Not to mention, that the black on black design just looks slick. As someone mentioned, the tubing is a bit tacky, but that is definitely not something worth taking a star off for.

The next time my scope gets lost or "borrowed", I will definitely get myself another one of these.
