I haven't received mine yet(should've last Friday, but no, instead they're sitting at a postal depot 30km away from here while i'm awaiting a response to my inquiry on what i should do.), but from what i've heard they have a fairly strong clamping force; combine that with wooden housing and i'd seriously doubt much noise would leak out.
Heck even the AD2Ks are somewhat fine at moderate volumes.
I could say with utmost certainty that you could get these to run at eardrum damaging volumes without anyone realizing. Ok, that probably is a bit of an overstatement
.
Though, you might want to wait for someone who actually owns a pair if you're intending to use these in a place where you can hear the clock tick
