AB  - Cardiac  auscultation  is  an  important  and  basic  component  of  a  physical  examination  in  clinical  practice.  For  the  experienced  listener,  auscultation  provides  quick  and  reliable  diagnostic  information  about  the  state  of  the  heart.  Phonocardiography  systems  allow  the  listener  to  record  these  findings.  Spectral  phonocardiographic  studies,  introduced  as  early  as  1955  by  McKusick  et  al,1  accurately  characterize  the  quality  of  heart  sounds  and  cardiac  murmurs  by  creating  a  graphic  record.  Recording  heart  sounds  and  phonocardiograms  enables  building  heart  sound  libraries  and  teaching  material.2-4  Dr.  Proctor  Harvey's  audio  tapes  are  classics  in  adult  cardiology.
