When using it with the highest volume does the people around you hear what you are listing to? In other words does it have sound isolation ?

They seem to have very good sound isolation. I like to jack the volume up pretty high for action movies when I'm traveling and I've had no problems with the sound bleeding out. FYI great headphone, had them for over a year and they are amazing.

At 3 feet distance at a normal volume my wife could not hear my music. At 6 feet distance from my wife at full volume she could hear the music but was not loud enough for her to tell what the song was.

I know that the sound is very isolated at normal listening levels. I have never tried listening at full volumn for fear of damaging my ear drums. Hope this helps.

The Noise cancellation function works without music playing. However, in normal office type situations, or in crowded rooms with a fair amount of noise, you will still be able to hear people talking. That is because, at least in my understanding, the noise cancellation works by blocking out the low frequency sounds, but the higher frequencies will still be partially audible. (Side note: the mute button will mute the music as well as turn off the noise cancelling function so that you can hear your surroundings better)

Nope, open. People can hear what you're listening to and you can hear noise around you.

Not at all unless of course you're playing it extremely loudly. It all depends on the volume, but at the levels that are 'healthy' for your ear, it's inaudible to others. When I remove my earpieces, about 5cm away from ears and I can't hear them anymore.

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.

It is noise cancelling, to a degree, I can still hear some noise, albeit muffled. To be fair, please know that I am really sensitive to noise, I hear sounds others do not - people are sometimes amazed at what I able to hear. I would test them out as I think it varies by individual.

I've asked a couple of people at work and they report the sound leakage is minimum at higher volume. We have separate cubes at my workplace and I've gotten no complaints. I've also had someone else wear them to hear it for myself and it's very quiet.

Yes, At full volume people around you will definitely be able to hear if it is quiet. They are not as bad as other over ear headphones but being over ear they tend to start leaking audio at around full volume. Walking around outside it is usually fine even on full volume but if you are in a quiet room I wouldn't plan on putting them on full volume if you don't want other people to hear.

No, it doesn't. But they can't hear you talk when it's in the air because it's so far away from your mouth. It does pick up some background noise.

Others can hear at whatever volume the TV is set for. Conversely you can mute the TV and listen to it through the headphones and not disturb anyone else.

Yes, they are open air design, so everyone will probably hear what you're hearing if they're in the same room. Because of this, I have not taken mine to work. If you listen quietly you can't hear the sound leaking, but at the level I like to listen (mildly loud) people can easily tell what you're listening to.

I think the sound leakage is generally quite low. It is worth noting however that the microphones will pick up any non-continuous noise in the room around you, so if you have others around you, everyone will hear them in a call.

Yes, It only has a max volume level. It CANNOT be turned down. It a room with people, it is much to loud.

The unit can be loud at its highest level, however it is at your discretion on the setting. I only set it to the highest level when I leave my home for maximum humidity saturation in a short period of time. I have a home with an open floor plan so sounds travel fairly easily throughout my home. The unit sits in my office which is about 40ft from the family room. At the 2nd setting it is hardly noticeable. hopes that helps. Thomas

Noise pollution is very small. I can have volume on my Samsung S3 on max level and if I'm on bus, my neighbour can't hear. If the bus were to stop he might hear something but on normal listening level, which is 2 hits below the max, people around usually can't hear anything. Isolation isn't perfect but I is good and I sure was surprised by it.

specific db i could not tell you but i will say that i can hear it clearly and do not have it at full volume. it's not like the ear phones where you can hear what someone else is listening to because it is so loud, it is a comfortable volume and very clear.

It is not bad. We use it in a room with other ambient noise so we don't notice it at all. In a super quiet room you may hear it.
