I can't hear my 26" Sharp flat screen tv over my treadmill, that are only 5' apart. Would this be loud enough to hear over running on my treadmill?

Probably no more volume than your TV already. This would be similar to LCD TV or good laptop speakers.

I use my sound bar with my computer so I don't know for sure if it will work with a TV. Befor I purchased my unit I asked, as you are how it would work with a TV andwas told not too good. It does have a good amount of volume but will probably not be the best with music.

This speaker works great when hooked to my ipod. This is not a TV sound bar.

It works great on my tv, I use it while I am on the treadmill. I used to have to turn the sound up very load so I could hear it while I run but this brings the sound to me.

It is not very loud. I do not think it would interfere with you hearing the tv.

Just set mine up. I do have a home theater system, so it isn't an issue with me. But I am also not impressed with the sound from the tv. You certainly should be able to hear it over other noise, even though it could be louder.

The motor is quiet when under 4.0 mph and gets louder as you go up, but with any treadmill, the noise will be from you running and stomping. That will be terrible for your neighbors below so my suggestion would be to pick up two 'Thick Interlocking Black Foam Tiles for Treadmill & Equipment' which amazon sells. The more padding and/or carpeting the better.

mine is plenty loud at about 1/3 volume, but the unit is about 2 ft from memine seems to be audible, from 10ft away-not loud, but audibleI keep the TV volume muted, its just me in the TV room, most of the time, but if wife is watching TV, with me, I just turn the TV volume upI really think this is made, to set close to someone that has hearing lossHope this helps

Check to see if your TV supports wireless headphones. It might be a cheaper solution. NOTE: Other exercise machines may have the same noise level. This machine is about the same as others on the market. Go to a couple of different gyms and try them out, before you buy a replacement. Usually each gym has a week trial period "no charge".

No, when the one I have is turned up to maximum it would be most definitely too loud for a person with normal hearing. You might check to see if the set up connections are done correctly. Just a suggestion

I'll put it this way. I'm in the same room with it watching television, it's on low speed always, and it necessitates raising the volume of the TV at least 20%. You won't be screaming over it mind you but you will be competing with it. Expect that all other sounds need to be a little bit louder to be heard. It's not like a jet engine but it's louder than my air conditioner. That's for sure.

The volume can be set constant, and if low enough you could watch TV with it on. But is also has a function where the volume level increase or decreases based on noice it picks up. So the higher the volume on the TV, the louder the machine would go. You would have to set the volume level as constant. This thing is a big upgrade on our earlier machine, and works really well as it is highly adjustable.

Not sure how far apart the ppl are. I'd turn you device on as loud as it can go, & then turn up the LGT to its maximum setting and you'll be able to hear it very well.

I'm not sure I understand the question. I can watch tv and hear OK when it's running. Not terribly noisy. Hope this helps. Kathy

I think it would be a bit loud if you were trying to watch TV in the same room.

I would think so you can adjust the volume to really loud.. all sorts of fan sounds etc.. I have mine really low and blocks out TV etc.. from next room and barking dogs across the street..

Yes, it works great. The only way I can hear the TV. I have two base stations. one at the treadmill another in the family room. Phonak hearing aid for one ear and a cochlear implant for the other. It's best if your TV has a headphone jack. R.M. Maryland

The "buzz" is a fan and you have to be right next the TV to hear it - if the fan on your laptop does not bother you this won't either. If it is louder than that you should return it - its broke....

The treadmill only beeps when you push a button, however this can be disabled be entering the "Engineering Mode" by pushing Stop + the Up arrow for three seconds. Cycle through to F015 and change to Off and you should be good to go. It's quiet enough that when I'm on the phone or a conference call using a USB microphone that no one can tell. If it's a video conference, people can and do see my head moving from walking, but that's about it.
