the G cush is also my favorite .

I dont have offical G-Cush pads, but the Ear Zonk from Amazon. I am guessing these are unofficial "seconds". But I am curious if there is any sonic differences. My next step will be to test with Senn. HD414 pads and quarter mods. Additionally, I have a super "secret" dual-quarter mod pad-stack that I am curious about. Time to start digging out my old pads.
The comfies have a nice warmth to them, so with any luck the quarter mod with clear up bass without killing the sound. (BTW, I think the L-Cush has the best soundstage and tightest bass of what I've tried)
Can anyone comment on how the sound-leakage is on these? I was thinking about getting some to wear at the office, but wasn't sure how disturbing it would be.

I believe the consensus is they leak about 98% as much as other Grado models like the SR225i, etc.
I was using these in my office environment and I didnt have too many issues at a modest listening level.
I would say about 95% - 98% of the leakage of a regular pair of Grado's as stated above.
The wood on the back of the cup is very thin and air vents take up about 75% of the radius of the cup's edge, so these do not isolate well at all.
The above being said, the person who sits next to me has similar music tastes and in a lot of cases has their own headphones on, so this negates much of the issue for me.
If you sit near/next to a cranky person who hates your music, you might be in trouble.

Thanks guys! I was hoping that the semi-closed back would be good enough, but looks like it might not be.
Just wondering if anyone has any updated opinions or thoughts on the Bushmills now that they've had some time with them?
It doesn't seem that Turntable Labs have any more stock yet... Does anyone know if more are planned?
