Do these headphones get really loud? I use the headphones that come with the iphone 4 and when watching shows at the gym it just isn't loud enough.

They are better/louder than the iPhone earbuds in my opinion but not by much. I use these for running because the iPhone buds just fall out.

I would say they do since when my husband wears them and has them turned up I can hear his music from the other room. Hope it helps

I use these when i mow the lawn and they are just loud enough. They are very comfortable in the ears. I have enjoyed these headphones.

This is only a 32Ohm unit and you maybe used to a 50Ohm unit ... so you maybe over driving the max output of the headphones. Mine are pretty loud and actually respond better on my mobile than others. I did notice a huge difference when I plugged them into a soundboard that I normally use 50Ohm headphones. (Your output device may not work well at 32Ohms.) But at the max volume when they start to distort is way too loud for me and I don't want to loose hearing.

I haven't used them in the gym but I do use them when I run, and there has been a few times cars have come up by me and I never heard them coming, and I have used them when the girlfriend is yelling at me, cant hear a word ahahahahaha.

Yes, they pull out to adjust to your head. I wish they could be narrowed a bit if desired but that is not adjustable. They sound good. Like most Bluetooth phones they have more than enough volume for videos. iTunes at full volume in the gym is a little weak. I find myself wishing for a little more volume. Bass response is good and so is clarity. Good headphones.

Well an interesting thing about these headphones is that at full volume they're louder then most ipod speakers! as for sound leaking, probably a 5 or 6, its not terribly bad but can noticeable if its really quiet.

Yes the headphones volume is independent from the device your paired with sometimes I forget that so when it beeps to indicate that's as loud as the headphones go I realize my phones volume is supper low so I need to turn my phone up. As to the sound quality, obviously there not beats but at about mid volume on both head phones and device I'm able to affectively drown my roommates Skype call out as well as down noises of public transit out.

I use them when I go for walks at the park and they are perfect, but, I believe that depending on what type of activity you are doing at the gym. I believe that they would not work very well in a activity where your head is moving all the time, the headphone would tend move.

My gym is in my garage, Ill see in a few minutes.... I went out and tried em out, and found that they work fine in that regard, as long as you cinch the Headband down slightly snug. My phone powers these plenty loud as well.

I max these on the iPhone 5 and there is a bit of leakage of audio from the headphones, but so is there with all headphones! These do however, isolate you from the outside world unless someone yells right next to you. Everything is blocked when riding the Chicago 'L' and sitting next to loud coworkers.

would love to answer you on this but I use an iPhone. I will say that Adidas is in the 'global' business, I would believe that they surely didn't make this product as a niche only 'Apple-like' piece! If you do get them, they will end up being your 'go-to' headphones. They actually stay IN your ears as opposed to the ear buds. I love mine so much I bought 3 pair

You can connect these headphones to an iPhone with 1/4" to 1/8" phone plug adapter. There is sufficient power to drive the headphones, but you may find that these phones are better suited to other applications. You might also try using a small headphone amp to provide more power for the phones. These are excellent headphones for studio monitoring as well as general listening.

Probably depends on how loud you turn up your volume. Headphones don't really eliminate sound very well, but they can cover it up. Unless you buy some really expensive active sound canceling headphones. At my gym, I keep my volume relatively low and can only occasionally make out the piped-in music.

Only if you have the volume really high. The air is still being pushed around the contact points so it creates sound. Unfortunately I've found them very ineffective at low volume especially in a busy gym.

I use these headphones at the gym... Yeah you do hear some clanging and banging in the background when you aren't listening to music, but when you are, they're pretty isolated, the volume goes up quite a bit so that really eliminates much of the external sound. But these about 3 or 4 months back and don't really have any complaints, great buy for the price!

No, the volume will only get to the loudest your device can get, it won't add any "loudness". Although you can turn your device all the way up and just use the volume control on the headphones. Hope this help!

hmm, well I can tell you they block out noise very well, but I've never asked anyone if they can hear my music when the headphones are on. No one has ever told me that they are too loud or annoying. If you keep the volume level in the middle, then you will be fine, but if you blast it (prob not good for ears anyways), then I would think someone sitting next to you may be able to hear it. Hope that helps.
