Which is better - short or long tubes?

American Diagnostic Corporation - Frequently Asked Questions
Laboratory tests have demonstrated that shorter tubing provides a better acoustic response. In reality most people do not have the hearing acuity to detect any performance impact from changes in tubing length unless there is a dramatic change in that length. In fact, the acoustic transmission of lower frequencies, with their longer wavelength, benefit slightly from increases in tubing length. Longer tubing tends to make the scope more convenient to use, but also adds a bit to its weight.

Is there a difference in sound quality between long and short tubing?

M(TM) Littmann(R) Stethoscopes : Frequently Asked Questions
Past publications have suggested that the shorter the tubing, the better the acoustic response. Laboratory testing has shown this to be true, but the average hearing person will only pick up a difference if there is an extreme increase in tubing length.
