How loud are the beeps/warnings/announcements? Some BT headphones have warnings that are jarringly loud and disproportionate to the music volume.

The beeps are quite reasonable. 5 stars for beeps, 1 star for comfort, 3 for sound.

The beeps/warnings/etc actually have a very "pleasant" sound and is just loud enough to be audible yet not interruptive of whatever you are listening too.

YES! This are the biggest waste of money. The idea of headphones was I thought to deliver quality sound to the listener, not the person standing across the room. It's not because the music is too loud either. This is not a problem with the smaller beats.

All of what has already been said, AND, the headphone link is very noisy. Mine is anyway. Buzzes...hums... Same with two different inputs, two different power sources, no matter where it is placed. It's not an enviromentally induced noise...it's the converter.

I'm using this in a office environment and mine seem to leak a large amount of sound in comparison to both a low end Jabra C820S and high end BOSE QuietComfort 15.I dont know if mine are leaking out more than whats normal, for a closed back design I cannot understand how on earth they released something like this without insulting it better, and they want to compete for space against BOSE?, give me a break....Just my 2 cents though, they do sound amazing and the noise cancellation works well.

Yes, At full volume people around you will definitely be able to hear if it is quiet. They are not as bad as other over ear headphones but being over ear they tend to start leaking audio at around ¾ full volume. Walking around outside it is usually fine even on full volume but if you are in a quiet room I wouldn't plan on putting them on full volume if you don't want other people to hear.

well I got mine for kids, so I am happy with the lower volume but I give them headphones and they are happy with it, I use it to interact with my tv and play things on there so volume is not an issue there either. Sorry this really is of no help if your volume is too low for you.

It really depends on how loud your music is. They do isolate sound very well, I admit. For someone to catch my attention they have to yell my name or physically touch me when I have the headphones in my ear at medium loudness. My advice is to just be careful and rely on sight while using them.

Not sure what you mean but volume range is plenty loud with decent headphones. I've had mine for over a year now with plenty of abuse and it still works good.

It doesn't completely block sound, like at the gym I can still hear people's feet pounding on the treadmill. That said, I don't think anyone should be using headphones if they're cycling on the road.

There's no delay with my Sennheiser MM450, but from other reports I've read, it seems to depend on the BT headphones being used.

Hello, I two BTE hearings aids and sometimes when I put the headphones on I might get a little bit of feedback, but that's about it. I don't get feedback once the headphones are completely on.

The audible tone/beep is fairly loud, though not obnoxious. I think it's loudness will depend entirely on its location. Under a cushion, for example will have the expected muting effect. In most situations you will find the alarm sufficient, from my experience.

I tested this, and the music had to be really loud (old-school jungle at 120% volume loud) for someone next to me in a quiet room to report hearing anything. This is not, importantly, because of anything like "noise cancellation" (which messes with the signals themselves) but simply good design; you will have to turn the music off before you take them off your head in a library, because they do project some sound otherwise. Also, if you live in a city in which being annoying on public transport is considered unacceptable, please send brochures

Never had that issue, this has been my favorite set of bt headphones I've owned.

Unless you play your music at relatively high volumes (I-tunes slider maxed, and windows volume slider over 50-60) then it won't be very noticeable unless theirs absolutely nothing else going on in the room noise wise (fans, tv, talking etc.) If you plan to use them in the library or tend to be in a dead quite environment though, then I would go with any headphones that are "Closed back" such as any DJ headphones.

That was a concern of mine as well, since the design is supposed to be kind of open. I usually listen at about 1/3 - 1/2 max volume, and a couple of times I took out my earbuds and held them in front of me and I couldn't hear anything. So I think they're pretty decent at directing the sound, although this is obviously not a thorough test.
