New Head-Fier
Thanks for the reply. I have B&W P7W for the office, and Beyerdynamic Amiron Home for home use. I am pleased with both. I just ordered the NH for listening while walking outdoors, which the others are not well suited for. At this price point, it is hard to resist.I have the Nighthawk and Nightowl (“closed” but not 100%, there is still a small hole supposedly)
The Nighthawks leak considerably, but less than fully open HPs.
If you play something at high volume people around you will know what you are listening to.
The Nightowls still leak somewhat, definitely much more than the Sennheiser Momentum 2 I had.
Similarly both headphones will let sound in, NH more than NO, and at high volume I can’t hear any outside noise anymore.
But both are kind of outstanding visually with the relatively big ear cups and the wire arch above your head. I want them to be portable, but I have never considered wearing them on the road.
