If I turn the volume all the way up on my phone and on the SwageU would it be loud enough to listen to music without putting the ear buds in my ears?

No, they aren't nearly loud enough. I actually replaced these with a set of over the ear nakamichis for just a couple of more bucks. Not a good solution for listening to music at your desk.

I love my music loud as well. I have my iPhone volume up to about halfway between the middle and the loudest and you can't hear anything besides the music. No outer interference or anything. It's like you're in your own little world of music. Bass is pretty good as well in my opinion.

You can, but with headphones you'll only be able to lower the volume and not increase it passed the highest level the dock can go over. In a vehicle or if plugged up to a stereo you can increase it passed that point, but hopefully the level is adequate enough with your preferences. I ride a motorcycle and listen to music in my helmet with headphones, and occasionally the highest volume won't be enough, but it's rare.

You might have to adjust the volume. Otherwise I have had no problems with it.

Not on my unit. The volume when turned up is very loud. My wife who is hard of hearing keeps it somewhere in the middle range which is loud for me so most of the time she uses ear buds which blocks out the normal speakers..

When listening to music I cannot hear anything from outside. The volume is somewhat low even when the phone or ipod volume is max the volume on the buds itself has to be set near high to get medium level hearing.

Yes you will have to use an adapter from the earphone outlet and bring up the volume slowly!

No, you can play as loudly as you want and as long as the headphones are on the music doesn't leak.

Can you answer your phone if you're listening to music through your ear buds? If so, then there shouldn't be a problem.

It's pretty loud in your ear, but like all cell phones, it doesn't ring loud. You have to mostly depend on the vibrate. I didn't try using it with sensitive ear buds though. Some ear buds are louder than others. It's a really nice phone though, and I got a black rubber case for it, it's really nice to handle.

Yes, you may use the speakers or ear buds. My motorcycle is so loud that I have to use ear buds to protect my hearing let alone hear the music.

I'm not sure exactly what you are asking but I will give it a shot. These are pretty sensitive as to sound verses volume. unlike most that I have used, these seem to be more equivalent to the volume of your car stereo, the more you turn your device up the louder the sound gets. Some ear buds tend to stop getting louder once your volume is about half way.

Not at all...late at night you might not use it at high volume :)... but I'm quite satisfied with the unit

Yes but keep the volume of iPhone 5 at about 50% or the sound might distort

Great! I usually adjust the volume about half way and I'm hard of hearing. This is with both headphones and ear buds.Hope this helps you. I spent a lot of time researching thiis selection. Right now I'm listening to my MP3 (Sanso) pluged into the "Aux In" jack. One of many options available.Best wishesGil

No, not loud enough. On my Galaxy Note 2, it didn't increase the sound enough that you'd get a benefit from using this.

I notice a bit, but it is not so audible as to be a problem. At least for me it isn't. But, as they say, your results may vary. I would guess it would relate to the buds you are using. I use a very good, but not great, set of Sennheisers.
