How badly does the sound leak when you have the headphones on. Will The mic pick up sounds from the headset while wearing them?

When I'm talking with friends in Teamspeak or Skype, they claim that they can hear some of my sound. I don't think it's terrible, but not a high point of this headset.

Yes it does and the sound it's not that good... I like a lot everything about razer products and I have a few ones... But this in particular didn't like me because the quality of the sound does not match my expectations... If you are looking for a good gaming headset try the Logitech G35... That headset it's really awesome...

it does leek very badly, and yes mine did pick up sound. Honestly I would stay away from Razer headsets, all there good at is mouses and keyboards, everything else is completely crap

yes the mics are very good! I have had mine for half a year so far, no loss in quality. but keep the small one in a memorable place.p.s it would be a good idea to SEW the ear padding down, otherwise it will come off within 2 weeks. (that is literally the only problem, if you sew it early, you will never have to worry about the padding)better than the expensive turtle beach or other brands that I've tried, that's for sure!

They have good quality for not being on max volume, and they wont fall off that easy, but if you put the max volume (and you migth need to if you wanna lisin to all the detals, at least in my own expirience) it will leak out a little. If you got a good mic, it should not pick background noise. (if you are worried that the sound from your headphones migth catch up, you should get a shure mic instead of the headphones :p )

I have heard from those I talk with on skype that the mic is buzzing a lot, and picks up background noises. It could be that my sound card isn't good enough to handle it, or that some of my settings are wrong (though I have tried to fix it for a while without luck).

I've not used it professionally. I try to record voice for videos and find that it picks up ambient noise, but would likely sound washed out if several were attempting to use it at the same time. As mentioned before, it is pretty necessary to be directly in front of the mic and pretty close to get good audio. I picked up a pop filter because I was so close. I hope that this helps.

no, they don't leak sound at all. Just make sure you put the right sized pads over the ear buds. They come with 4 sizes, so you have to choose the one which fits snugly in your ear.

I bought a pair of these ~2 years ago and never noticed the sound leakage. I lost them and recently bought another pair last week (loved the first pair obviously) and immediately noticed sound leakage. Not sure if something changed in recent design, but I definitely noticed.

It depends on what settings you have set to your computer. I'd definitely recommend headphones or disabling real-time playback of what the mic picks up.

If I understand your question right the sound transmitting through the mic doesn't automatically get played through the headset unless you enable Windows to listen to the device your mic is plugged into. You can do that from the Recording Devices tab of Audio Properties. These headphones are open acoustics which means that the sound will seem as though it's coming from all around you instead of just over your ears, but you can hear everything else going on around you as well so they aren't ideal for noisy environments. Closed acoustics are better for noise canceling but IMO they don't sound as good and they get hot and stuffy after wearing for long periods of time.

No, they don't leak sound. I can sit right next to my son when he has the headphones on and I don't hear a thing. He is very happy with them.

No, they do not seem to leak any sound as my desk is next to my wife's desk in the office and she cannot hear me listening to music with the volume somewhat high. I can hear my wife talking over the headphones when the volume is not too high, but once the volume is turned up you do not hear anything in the room.

No they will not, these headphones really are great in that aspect. The noise isolation is incredible. I have had multiple occasions where people have been trying to talk to me while I was using them, and I had no idea anyone was trying to talk to me. They told me they couldn't hear the music at all, but it was loud enough for me to not be able to tell anyone was talking to me.

From my experience the sound bleed is significant only if your playing on near to max volume. Anything below that I have not noticed any terrible sound bleed using this headset

I have not use the ear piece. Sound comes out of mic. I am assuming if you use ear piece sound comes out so it. FYI make use all parts are pugged in all the way.

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.

There doesn't seem to be a problem with sound leakage, but you can hear the stuff going on around you. This is by far the best/most comfortable headset I've ever used.

I do not experience this noise. These headsets are working quite well and fit really great for me. I also have Shure branded headsets that are great
