Will these block music piped into the gym so I can listen to my own music?

Yes I think so. You might hear the gym music faintly. They have great sound. I think you'll like them - good luck :)

Not really, but I've always put the cord under my shirt anyway. I just hate that they don't go all the way into the ear canal like I thought they would...I can still hear tons of external gym noise.

That depends on how high you have the volume but you block out any sound around you with the headphones on

Absolutely. There is a cut out specifically for the speaker so sound is not blocked at all. Hope this helps!

No but they may reduce the sound enough for you to concentrate. They do not block out the sound completely.

I don't think they will. I told a friend about the headphones and now he wears them in the gym and our signals never interfere

IMO NO not at all. I have these and I love them for watching TV and music but if you just want to block out surrounding noise, these will not work. I'm very noise sensitive :(

I don't think so. People will know they're headphones. They're great they don't get in the way of anything.

Absolutely not. I just tried these on in my house and they block about as much noise as a sock would taped to your ear. I could clearly hear music playing on my TV at lvl 5/99. I put falling rain white noise on the headphones at low (the volume I'd have on if I worked out at a gym with no music on) and I could still here everything around me, including the carpenters doing work downstairs. These may be great for runners/whoever but don't expect any sound blocking at all. Just reboxed them and shipping them back. Looks like I'm going to have to buy the $299 ones from Bose, which it a hell of a lot of money for headphones. Maybe I should just look for a new gym that doesn't think it's also a disco.

More than likely they will fit..they go where your headphones plug into..it's a decoration when you are not listening to your headphones.

No, I don't believe so. I got our second pair today. My kids were sitting a sofa away from each other. They we're listening to their own music with no problems.

these are headphones, designed to allow you to hear the device that they are plugged into, not noise blocking. I think that this and ear plugs would be acting against each other.

Yes, they would work very well for that. I use them at work to block out annoying co workers and my boss always telling me what to do. However the music volume doesn't go very loud because they are not amplified speakers. I don't use them often anymore tho because I don't have a job due to my lack of coherence.

Possibly, but I've only worn them while enjoying live (loud) music, and it doesn't muffle out the music, it just brings the sound level down a few decibles - enough to enjoy the music without damaging your hearing. I usually use Flents Quiet Please Foam Ear Plugs when I want drown out loud noises.

No, they will not stay put and they are pretty big to use them on the Gym, I would recommend Motorola S11 or Plantronics BackBeat 903 I had the second one they are good and flexible..

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.

No. They fit snug, but not enough for the gym. I tried doing pull ups and they would fall off. Plus the cord always fell out that inserts into the headphones themselves.
