What is the sound leakage when listening to music? Will the people around me hear my music as well?

they have strong clamping preasure on your head, combine that with the closed design and not a lot of noise will escape for other to hear your music.

Minimal. They're quite snug fitting and contain sound very well. The only thing I would mention is that if you wear glasses, like me, they obviously won't be "as" snug and I could see that accounting for a bit of leakage, but I haven't had this issue myself.

You have to play music at a high volume for others close around you to hear it. The headphone has little sound leakage, but if others around you can hear music well, you are probably listening at a level unsafe for yourself. When I let my grandson use them, I did not hear sounds. Hope this helps

The cups form a pretty good seal around my ears, so I don't think there's much leakage. Nobody around me has said they can hear my music.

I've been listening at fairly highly volume and there was little to no sound leakage

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.

Hi.On mine, when I plug in headphones, the sound switches from the speakers to the headphones. With headphones plugged in, you can listen to music without disturbing anyone else.

It really depends on how loud your music is. They do isolate sound very well, I admit. For someone to catch my attention they have to yell my name or physically touch me when I have the headphones in my ear at medium loudness. My advice is to just be careful and rely on sight while using them.

There is "sound leakage". At the moment, I have them hooked up to my computer. No special amplification, just on-board Realtek. At 75-100% volume, I can slightly hear them over ambient noise (such as my heater, which is kind of loud) while standing about ten feet away. I don't know if everyone else that answered this question listens to their music at low volume, or if their headphones have some insulation that mine doesn't but in my experience, there is plenty of "sound leakage". Also, you could actually use these as speakers while you're not wearing them. They wouldn't be loud enough to entertain anyone, but you could still listen to something while they sit on your desk.

Idk but when around a lot of ppl and turn them up u can't hear them. Just having them on without music, outside noise is very low.

No worries there's no sound leakage. Nobody will be able to hear what you are listening

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.

The noise canceling feature isn't as good as I thought it'd be BUT it does block out the majority of it. As for if people can hear my music? Absolutely. By no means does this product stop others from hearing your music. I can wear it around my neck and turn it into a portable speaker. Then again, this may be different with other music genres. I listen to metal and funk mainly so I don't know how other genres compare. I'll leave it for you to decide, but I give this product a 9.5 out of 10.

In my opinion the leakage will not be to loud.Having said that there is some leakage so if you want it to be silent these headphones are not the right choice.Edit...In regards to the DJ8 headphones, sorry but I have never heard them.

Not at normal volume. At high volumes people in a quiet room can hear _something_ - much like other headphones - they can tell it's music, but not really hear it.

If the volume turns up from 0 to 2 for moderate listening, it won't bother person next to u. Hope that helps.

Sound leakage is minimal, but present. Depends where you are. In my quiet living room, if I have them playing loudly and put them down on a table, I can hear it from a few feet away. But that's at like, way too loud for a quiet room levels. Not world-class. But these aren't quite world-class headphones. If I turn it down to a level you'd expect to be listening in a quiet room, you can't hear any sound leakage at all

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..

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.

If you turn your music up all the way it might be a three for someone sitting right next to you. But that is just that they can hear something. They can't hear what song or the words at all. If someone is 10 feet away they won't even know you have music on. For all they know you are listening to an audio book. It is minimal sound leakage. And again that was at the highest volume. I don't think you will have to be embarassed. I certainly don't want people to hear me learning to play the piano or I would be embarrased! I kept these and returned the others because it was so much better. If you need more info I'm here! If you turn your music up all the way it might be a three for someone sitting right next to you.

In a library setting at about half volume, people around me (~8 feet away) are able to hear my music. These definitely bleed sound.
