#1

Sound leakage is excellent in the one scored review, which reports zero spillage even at loud volume.

#3

Sound leakage evidence was limited but positive, with one reviewer finding leakage barely audible even at high volume.

#4

Sound leakage is usually controlled at normal volumes, though one wired review notes leakage at higher volumes.

#5

Sound leakage evidence was limited but positive, with one reviewer noting few gaps for sound to escape.

#6

Sound leakage evidence was limited and mixed, with one review praising low leakage while another noted audible leakage outside the headset.

#7

Open-back leakage is noticeable in shared spaces, though a couple of reviewers found it less severe than expected at normal listening levels.

Sound leakage was a weakness in the one direct review that discussed it, with audio bleeding through even with a seal.

#9

Sound leakage is an unavoidable tradeoff, with reviewers repeatedly warning that audio leaks out and can be heard nearby.

#11

Sound leakage was a repeated concern, with reviewers noting outward leakage despite thick cushions.

#12

Sound leakage is a downside of the comfort-focused fabric design, according to one review.

#13

Sound leakage was a problem in the one review that covered it, with nearby listeners able to hear playback at half volume.

Sound leakage was repeatedly flagged as a major open-back drawback, with reviewers saying sound clearly leaks in and out.

#16

Sound freely escapes the open earcups and can be audible to people nearby. A few users find leakage less severe than expected, but shared rooms remain a poor fit.
