How is the sound bleed? Can others around you hear your music?

Not at all. Only when I turn my iPhone to its highest volume setting as well as the headset will sound be heard. When you take them off - sound will obviously be heard. If you lift one of the cups off your ear, even moving it to the back of your head - some sound will be heard. But if both cups are secure on your ears, then no sound will be heard.

In a perfectly quiet room, you can hear them. In most environments, including libraries and offices, they're inaudible.

If you are on a plane and listening to music and the ambient noise around you, it does not bleed. If you are in a room and the drop of a pin can be heard, then yes it does.

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

It is not too bad but if you within 5 feet of someone and you are blasting it at full volume they could probably make out the lyrics of the song. That being said if you keep it to a reasonable level no one would notice. I still really like mine

It's not noticeable but it also depends how the music is being played. If you playing from a laptop that has more power then a phone and your connecting headphones on one aide and a speaker powers amp then nope.

It is not loud. When I play live and plug in to the same D.I. box that other players have been using, my guitar can't be heard. I have to tell the sound person to boost my gain considerably, then it works. It seems a preamp is necessary.

You can still hear. It just muffles things. Once you turn on the music, it pretty much cancels out all outside noise. As far as people talking, if my ol lady comes outside while I'm cutting the grass and tries to talk to me, I just pull the muffs off and see what she has to say. I hope this helps out.

During normal non-gaming use, I barely know it is on. When I play a simple online game (Runescape) it really revs up and gets quite loud for me. Sometimes I would rather not play then to have the noise. But then again, I've been told my ears are quite sensitive.

Since it has a noise canceling mic, you do not get a lot of bleed if you are also using speakers. I usually use the headset for voice chat while playing a game, so the game sound comes out the speakers while the voice chat sound comes out the headset. It works well.

How is it with sound? I may be one of a few, but I like my fans to make noise because it blocks out the irking street sounds of cars going by and loud music. I'd rather have fan noise than that irking noise!

No, played at reasonable sound, but if exceeded " loud" sound play, leakage will occur.

I agree with all the other users who have written in. I was worried about others hearing my music as well. I had them cranked pretty high up on a road trip and asked my brother sitting next to me if he could make out what i was listening to and he couldn't.

It's noticeable but not the worst I've heard. Putting it up high (be careful, drippage) might block it. We had music and the noise wasn't a problem. Can definitely talk over it.Please be aware that I personally had TERRIBLE dripping problems with mine but perhaps it was a defective item. Best of luck if you purchase!

Regarding sound bleed, these don't bleed for me, but then I have never used these that loud in a library. These headphones don't have much noise isolation also, so not good for commuting.

The thing about the noise canceling is that it doesn't work 100% well. It acts more like a bass boost imo. It cancels controlled steady noises, like fans and microwaves, but not unpredictable noises that change tones like people speaking and construction. So to answer your question, if you have your music loud enough then yes people will be able to hear it.

I love my music loud as well. I have my iPhone volume up to about halfway between the middle and the loudest and you can't hear anything besides the music. No outer interference or anything. It's like you're in your own little world of music. Bass is pretty good as well in my opinion.
