I do not know about better? but it has a different sound

I have heard some people say there were problems with the automatic timing systems.

If you work a game with the PRECISION TIME SYSTEM you must use a Fox 40 for it work properly.

but if not, I suggest to at least try the Dolphin. It sounds good, it's a bit big maybe, but it's not too big. And I think it's better for the ears then the fox, but maybe that's just me

But its ugly!

One additional good thing about the Fox 40 is the manufacturer is a long time referee who puts money back into many officiating causes. Who makes the Dolphin?

Don't like it at all.

I like it and use it frequently. I think my whistle would sound different no matter what. I want it to mean something everytime I put air in my whistle so I hit is hard. Another reason why I don't like de-valuing my whistles by blowing for every sub.

I love it. It is heavier and bulkier than the Fox 40, but louder and less "airy" sounding. I have used mine all season, and a lot of my co-officials have switched after calling with me.
