If i am sitting next to someone wearing these listening to music, will I hear the music echoing out of their headphones?

They cup your ears pretty well. The drivers aren't powerful enough to drive that much sound. Great headphones.

My husband owns these headphones, and I sit about 3 feet away from him on my own computer often when he's playing online. If I listen very hard I can just hear the sound of voices, but not enough to know what they're saying. I have heard people though when they were excited and shouting, but still not audible enough to be distinctive. I don't think you'd be disturbing anyone in another room, other than by your own voice when speaking maybe. Hope this helps.

If you are asking if these damage your hearing, I think I have a pretty good answer.The short answer is no. They don't damage your hearing more than a quiet conversation at a cafe would. Because these seal your ears from the ambient sounds around you, you can listen to music very quietly without any trouble. Sometimes, I put my phone's volume just under half if I am listening to a particularly quiet track. That's the loudest I ever have to make it. The way they sit in your ears might be a bit uncomfortable at first, but you'll get used to it quickly, and it's definitely worth it.

I have a big head and a semi-afro.They fit well.But the sound leaks.If I was 3 feet from you, I could probably hear your music

Unless you play your music at relatively high volumes (I-tunes slider maxed, and windows volume slider over 50-60) then it won't be very noticeable unless theirs absolutely nothing else going on in the room noise wise (fans, tv, talking etc.) If you plan to use them in the library or tend to be in a dead quite environment though, then I would go with any headphones that are "Closed back" such as any DJ headphones.

Not really, but like any headphone if you are close and it gets too loud the other person ca N hear. Comfort wise they are great

If you are waering them no, they can´t. If you are not wearing them and they are really close to you they might hear it.

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

I notice a bit, but it is not so audible as to be a problem. At least for me it isn't. But, as they say, your results may vary. I would guess it would relate to the buds you are using. I use a very good, but not great, set of Sennheisers.

Not unless you have it really loud..You don't need the volume high to enjoy these. So for the most part no, no one should be able to hear your music..

Hi Judith, if your question is about if people around you will hear the music playing on the headphones, in connection with the Noise Canceling feature, then yes they will be heard, specially if the volume is high. -Vincent

I really like my headphones, but honestly believe that a good set of earplugs would work better. They will work without music playing. I sometimes do this on a plane. They do an excellent job of blanking out the engine drone but I can still hear people talking (albeit at a much reduced volume)

I don't know about how flush they sit, but I would be very cautious in using these while driving. When properly inserted in the ear, I couldn't hear any outside noise, even my wife talking to me when she was sitting next to me. But I'm definitely not a biker, so I would have no experience as to how they would affect sensory input.

its great...the headphones really immerse you in the music. Once you put them on you only hear the music...but others can hear your music, if that's a problem for you.

For me, these are "sit on an airplane and bask in envious glares" headphones... the fit is tight enough and the headband doesn't move much, but depending on use, the sweat might be a deal-breaker. Light stuff should be just fine though.

Yes. In fact, my husband and I often use this headphone set if our 7-yr old son leaves them near our laptop.

They should be okay .... I use them without any music on and I dont hear any hissing noise or even when I listen to music very low
