Has anyone used these headphones? If so, can you hear the music ok AND outside sounds...plus (and important!) can others be bothered by the music?

Thanks!

I have a pair of these & use them fairly often. In regards to your concerns:

1. Yes, you can hear music and the surroundings quite easily. They rest over your ears, so they do not drown out the "real world" &

2. No, they are not so loud that anyone can be bothered by them. In fact, unless someone is right next to you, they cannot be heard at all (even if then).

They have a slide volume control on them that allows for adjustment without having to screw with your mp3 player while working out.

The only real issue I have with them (other than the price!!) is that it is a bit tricky to get them where you actually want them. They hook over your ears, so you have to kinda' play with then to get them to stay where they are comfortable for you. The earpieces do bend, so they can be fitted for the individual.

Don't get them! I loved mine, but the sound went out on one of my ears. Then today DH's sound went out on one ear! I had the kid size and DH had the adult size. They're too expensive to go out like that!

How long did you have them?

 

[lenshanem]

I've had mine at least a year, DH's much less.

Shan, have you contacted the distributors regarding a return?

I've got them and so far they are ok. I haven't had them that long bought them at DL expo. I don't think they are any more intrusive to others than the ones folks wear in their ears with the volume cranked up.
