Does the sound leak and is it good with all types of music

Leak, as in someone around you can hear? No the closed set does not leak sound. I think Aaron Burleys review in the review section sums it up. You can read more there. Concerning music he said, "Now, onto the good! Other than the lack of bass, these things sound absolutely amazing. I've never been a fan of close backed headphones, but these opened my mind. I heard things in music that I never knew existed. Things like extra background voices in the chorus of a song, reverb where I didn't know it was present" However if you want a headphone set strictly for music your probably better of looking at something different.

It does leak a little but not enough to notice unless the volume is at the max. So far, every type of music that I have tested with these headphones has had crystal clear sound, even at maximum volume. Quality headset!

No, the sound doesn't leak at all when I use them - my wife watches TV from the bed right behind my PC and only complains about my talking, not leaking sound! ;) . Regarding music type, the headset does not have very deep bass - its more accurate (think flat EQ). If you enjoy music with heavy bass you should not get this headset. It is more for SQ (Sound Quality) than volume and bass. ps. the mic quality is excellent!

Leakage is bad. Definitely not minimal. Earplugs are better if you are avoiding leakage

Not very much. But it depends on what kind of music you listen to and how loud you are listening to it. If you keep your volume at a reasonable range it seals pretty well. I haven't had any complains from my peers yet.

I use mainly my phone (htc one) zune, ipod mini, as well as my laptop works great. It's just not the best when it comes to bass. Its still great sound and its easy to travel with. Especially for being so cute.

Yes they leak sound, but if you listen at work appropriate levels say 20% on iPhone, should be no problem unless you share a cube. They sound great.

No, it is not very good. I don't use it. Only used it one time, it was not very good at keeping noise out. I am planning on giving it to a kid to play with.

I use it for bass practice when everyone is asleep and i need just to hear myself (without headphones)It handles the sound well!! of course the sound is not good coming out from this little twitter, and it tends to feedback on certain notes, but for quite/portable training amp it gets the job done very well

I think the sound quality is good. It's not the most high end system but certainly has good volume and decent quality. I've seen other reviews stating that the sound was not good, but that has not been our experience with this system. I think you will be happy with it.

I think the sound is really good, it is enhanced by software but you can enjoy it. Obviusly it has not so much power, it is just a tablet, but the quality is good.

Absolutely! That is what I mostly use it for. And when you want to listen to music it does not disappoint. It is great for both.

Hello john, this is good for some good music. It depends on your intended use really. Its not meant for parties, but background music and alone music is great. Also look at the db sensativity on your speakers. Some speakers will sound louder at same volume then others. Cheers!

I've listened to them pretty loud and I haven't gotten any strange looks from people because they could hear my music. As far as I'm concerned, these headphones don't have much sound leakage if any at all.

I wouldn't recommend putting the volume too high especially in the library but in the bus should be fine. It's not as bad as the Beats leakage.

Hi, This is my husbands, so I asked him. He says it has good bass, and goes deep and it has no distortion. Hope this helps.

it's surprisingly good! i have a small jambox that sounds nice but it blows it away. i also have the bigger soundlink bose that i paid $300 for and it's only a small step ahead of the mini on sound, clarity, and bass! i hope this helps!

Well an interesting thing about these headphones is that at full volume they're louder then most ipod speakers! as for sound leaking, probably a 5 or 6, its not terribly bad but can noticeable if its really quiet.
