these phones would be great in a gym . the chord is plenty long for your music device . the good thing about the v-moda lps is nobody can hear what you are listening to . a normal portable player will probably run the v-moda lps for a couple of hours at least . you will have to take them off your ears every 20 or 30 minutes because they may get a tad warm and sweaty while working out . the v-moda lps grab and hold your head really well so they won't be moving off your ears unless you do it yourself ..... a good thing for exercising .

The audio only cable is about 175 cm. (69") long. The 3-button microphone cable (Crossfade LP) or 1-button SpeakEasy Mic cable (Crossfade M-100) is about 132 cm. (52") long. I measured them, but you can also find info like this on V-Moda's website. Unfortunately I can't answer your second question, since I don't have an iPod Nano, but my own MP3 player can give my Crossfade LPs enough juice for quite a bit more than 2 hours (maybe even more than double that). You could always contact V-Moda via http://v-moda.com/contact/ and ask them. They're usually very quick to reply.

Hello! As for the iPod nano, not sure about that. I've only used it with my iPhone and have used it for hours straight. It comes with 2 cables. The one with the volume control and microphone is about 4 ft long, while the other cable is 6 ft long. Plus, the cables are braided and one end has a 45 degree connector, which I find awesome to relieve stress off the cable where it plugs into your player. Hope this helps!

The bulk of these headphones would make it difficult to use while working out.

Yeah I cant give an exact length but the cord is really long almost anoyingly long and yeah it will be fine for two hours

It comes with two cables one with audio controls the other without the one without audio controls are long enough and yes I think your iPod nano would have more than enough power to run this

Their bulky size goofball look in a gym will make you want to pick something smaller. Further it is a bad idea to invest much money in gym cans because they're subject to more wear, breakage, and getting saturated with sweat. Get yourself some normal ear-clip style minimalist earphones instead.

A good brand regular battery seems to last several hours. Am pretty sure you can add music to it fromiTunes. I'm very pleased with mine and have gotten hours of pleasure from it and found it simple touse even though I am up there in age (almost 70).

The ones with the same design? Can't speak from experience, but while they look cooler being black with that pattern, the battery is stated as 5 hours between charges (I can easily get 7 or more on my active 2 playing Pandora with a few short calls, non stop) and the others are more expensive, at least for now. Three other people saw me with mine at work, all bought a pair, all have loved them for running, working, weight lifting etc.

I've been wondering the exact same thing b/c I received the SB240 headphones as a Christmas gift and by March they had stopped working b/c they would not charge! I used them moderately for workouts about 60-90 mins, 3-5 times per week and I tried several different chargers to try to get them to work again w/ no luck. I'm thinking I will get these as a replacement and hopefully they are of better quality!

I have had mine last for 18 hours, they both have batteries, and are connectable for 1-2 or 3 I have 3 connected. 1 cable into the phone/ipod/computer leads to the speaker (s). Hope this helps, we love ours!!!!!!!

Classic ipods have a hard drive which could theoretically, be damaged by running. Apple doesn't want to promote people running with their classics, so they haven't allowed the Nike plus system to work with one. I know...it sucks. I have a classic and I want this system badly, so I'm probably going to suck it up and buy an 8GB nano. It'll be less bulky to run with anyway.

You can charge the cube before you need to use them and they work for a pretty good amount of time. I had the cube on for about four hours straight and it was wonderful. Just remember it's a solid sounding wireless speaker for the price and size. It's not anything crazy like a much more expensive Bose or Beats by Dre....enjoy if you do get one!!! I love mine!!!

My speakers weren't completely dead and it took 45-50 minutes this morning. My purchase was for listening to audiobooks on my Android tablet so my use is not daily, but I have found while listening to audiobooks, my speakers last a lot longer than 4 hours.

The battery lasts a long time. Probably over 15 hours I would say. And yes, you need the violin on for the headphones to work.

I use mine in my classroom all day, every day (since last year) and charge it overnight. There were days when I would forget to disconnect it from the sound system and leave it ON over night. It would easily play the next day - so it will last quite some time without running out of juice. It also shuts itself off if the Bluetooth device you are using goes out of range for a few minutes, which saves the charge even longer. So if you're using it in a car for example, you'll need to remember to turn it back on.

I have never actually timed it but it seems to go many hours as I use it while streaming radio or my mp3s and it just keeps going and going. Eventually I just plug it in when I"m finished. I have never run out of juice to date. BTW this thing is amazing in my eyes for its size.

I just received it in the mail, and it does not run on batteries, just an outlet.I really wanted one that ran on both, but just returned a different set of iPod speakers in the same price range, because the sound quality wasn't good. So, I'm sticking with these. The quality is good for under $30, and it charges the iPod. HTH. :)

How long is a long time? I probably have a pair that I use at least 3 times a week while hopping around at the gym. They may last between 6 months to a year. But they are so inexpensive, with fantastic sound, plus the ear piece stays in my ear; totally worth it to me. Good luck!

I get 7-8 hours of continuous audio out of mine! I listen to talk mostly, so maybe less bass = more battery? I dunno, but I've been through several pairs and always get, at least the 7 hours the nice lady inside the headphones says I'll get.

I have never completely drained the battery in 1 use . I usually charge them up at night whether the battery is low or not . I would say you can get at least a good 4 hours out of them , beyond that ,I can't really give you an honest answer. We haven't had them long enough To experiment . Between my 2 kids and I ,we have no complaints and we each have a pair they are not the best headphones you will ever own , but they are incredible for the price and sound quality.I think it may also depend on what your expectations are , we use them to listen to music and watch movies . I hope this helps you .

The music paying from my iPod sounds great, but I am generally using it as a PA system. The battery runs the system for about 5 hours, but if you need more continuous playtime, have an alternate power source.
