My husband doesn't have great hearing and I have not been able to find a head set that turns up loud enough. Do you think this head set turns up loud?

No it will not increase volume louder than what you set. it is made to keep volume at a steady level when loud commercials come on. in your case go to radio shack or ebay.com or amazon.com and buy a wireless headphone. you plug it into the tv audio output and you wear the headphone like earmuffs and you can adjust the volume as loud as you want with a knob on the headphone. i have used sentry HO-800 for years. hope this help you.

There is no volume adjuster included within the cord of the headphones, so the headphones will go as loud or as soft as the device settings permit. I can say that the loudest setting is not as loud as one would think. I believe it was meant to be that way.

it will drown out anything if you have it up loud enough. This headset is Awesome!! Very clear and well made! I gave them to my farther who is hard of hearing and he can hear TV so much better. I can drown noises out with them, yes.. It is according to how loud you need them to go which can go very loud!! Try them, you will probably be glad you did just as I am very pleased!! I have bought 4 sets for me, my husband, and my mom and dad...

While it has a speaker, it is not loud. The speaker will save you if you have no bluetooth device. You will not want to use the speaker as a means to communicate with people as there is no privacy. Get a bluetooth headset and you will be lovin life.

Yes, that's what makes it so wonderful. DH can watch tv anytime at night he wants to, doesn't disturb me a bit. I have the tv on mute, but his headphones are always adjusted to suit his hearing needs. I can control the volume when I'm in the room and his adjustment remains the same. It has allowed him to not get hear aids as the tv was our biggest problem. He had the sound set at 90 on the tv and I just couldn't stand it that high. Now, we're happy as clams. Go for it.

I can't you an absolute yes or no, but all I know is that you tend to talk louder cause you can't hear yourself talking. The headset is awesome, the clarity of the sounds from the game is over the top. Plus you can hear things like the phone ringing or that someone wants to talk to you is great. Hope this helps.

Ear speaker is pretty weak. My wife turns on the speaker phone feature (big speaker, I presume) in order to hear well enough. I can hear that one in another room.

No, I agree the volume is low but I was aware of that before I purchased based on previous reviews. Other the that its been a very good system.

My experience with this headset is that the sound level isn't quite high enough in a loud environment so my guess would be no, it will not be loud enough for you if you have hearing problems.

I only have moderate hearing loss so turning the volume up all the way would be too loud for me. I have read other reviews on this where some people couldn't hear with the volume high but that's because they had bad hearing loss, maybe it's the headphones and you should mail them back and try a new pair. I get no static in these headphones but my friend does. I'd try mailing it back and trying another unit.

I can't hear anything besides what is coming through the headphones. My husband looks like he's hailing a taxi when he tries to get my attention. I never here him or the television. Of course, the lower the volume the more noise gets through.

I know that it has a volume adjust. It's hard to say. You might have a level turned down somewhere on you audio chain.

Its fairly loud. But no real loud. If the individual is very hard of hearing I would not recommend it.

Hi Julie, your volume has to be adjusted. Possibly to the lowest set and then adjust to your needs.

Yes, there's some sound leakage. If you're concerned about this, you may want an over the ear headset rather than an on your ear headset as this one is.

My husband is a truck driver, so there is always a lot of noise. Since I got him this headset, I can hear him much better, it often sounds like he is in the next room. If your mom has a weak voice, this might be good, just make sure the microphone is closer to her mouth. And make sure if you have one, your volume is up on your end.
