Does the speaker prevent your bed partner from hearing the music? That's what I am trying to acheive.

My wife doesn't complain anymore about the radio keeping her awake. It has a volume control and when it is under the pillow, it seems to work pretty well.

If the amplifier is on with the volume at max loudness, your bed partner would have to have the hearing of a bat to hear tv or music. If you have the speaker under just a little bit of a pillow, she'd have to be akin to a superhero to hear anything. Specifically --- I doubt if your bed partner will be able to hear whatever you're listening to.

Yes, assuming you don't have the volume to loud. You partner should be able to sleep sound, mine does.

Yes, if you place it under your pillow the sound is very localized. They won't hear it.

It does seem to do this. My husband was complaining about the loud background music in shows. He uses his TV ears earphones to hear what is being said. He has been very pleased with them. He uses the earphones to hear when we get a phone call and mute the TV. When not using the earphones, the box acts like a surround sound.

No ... volume is controlled on the device to which the phones are plugged in. However, if not turned "on" the sound is greatly diminished.

I was laying in bed with my son waiting for him to go to sleep. My wife walked in and tapped me on the shoulder. I took the headphones off and she said, "you can hear the music clearly, are they supposed to do that?" No, they are not quiet.

David, the noise cancelling works by it self without having to plug it into anything, so it should help cut down the snoring noises for your partner. You do need to get the one specific for your intended player, either for apple or Android devices.

Definitely not if they are behind a wall. Even if it is thin. There is plenty of sound leakage, but if they are not in the same room I cannot imagine they would be able to hear it.

No. But when you are listening to music with them you cant hear anything else

If you mean noise around the room, not what you're listening to, then yes. It blocks out quite a bit of sound from around you.

Yes, no problem. You can also put the TV on mute and the sound will only come from the speakers

The answer is - It depends. The setting/feature you're talking about is in your TV, not the headphones. On some TVs, when you plug in an "external speaker" into the jack, the TV cuts off the internal speakers. If yours works that way now, it will with this device - or any similar one. I recognize that this isn't actually an 'external speaker,' but all the TV 'knows'is that something is plugged into the external speaker/headphone jack, so it shuts off the speakers.

yes, you can still hear the tv - that is why i didn't like the product, got this for my grandddaughter at college thinking it would block out speakers so it didn't bother her roommate and it didn't.

Yes but in a low volume..if your turn the TV volume down to zero then you also won't hear it in the headphones..that's what sucks

If the volume turns up from 0 to 2 for moderate listening, it won't bother person next to u. Hope that helps.

The receiver has a switch that can be turned off and the volume can be set on low or high. At low we can hear it throughout the house. Volume is not the issue. It's the frequent false alarms that is bothersome.

That's a function of the TV and how you connect to it. If the TV mutes the audio out in lockstep with the speakers, then the headphones will mute with the TV.

No, not unless very high volume. It just makes it less likely that you would be awoken by small noises when asleep.

You can turn the volume low enough that you cannot hear it. Check your settings.
