  Leakage...............cranking pretty loud you can hear it faintly from about 4' away.  Not sure if this would be "cubicle acceptable" but I think so............I had it LOUD and could not hear it from 8' away around the corner.  At all. 

 
Good news. I`m often 8mm away from the next commuter on the train, but 99% of them have iems in anyway.  faint from 4 feet away sounds acceptable for restaurants and airport waiting areas, etc.  
 
Thanks Oregonian.

Yea I too think the leak is acceptable, as thankfully many "ear buds" have a lot of leakage in that the people listening to them are listening so loudly, so any one within 4 feet of you shouldn't notice to much as there's always noise in an around

HI GUYS!



All they know me my english is not the best



About SONY'S Z7 and my Personal Impressions about that



The biggest PRO is the WEARING COMFORT,Light to wear,the Pressure not too much,and the BEST OF THIS HP are the EAR PADS!!!woahh they are so soft and beside my ALPHA DOG pads the best in my collection



About the sound



The Isolation is very very good,better than TH 900



Bass is very very Strong and much more than TH900

Mids absolutly AMAZING!very neutral i love it



And NOW(my opinion) the BIGGEST PROBLEM/DISSAPOINTMENT THE HIGHS/TREBLE are not really good,for me MUFFLED(in German DUMPF)



Is this a really competitor to TH 900?100% i must say NO!!(but TH 900 is a other Price LEAGUE)



In This Price category i prefer to listening at home HD 700,but for mobile the Z7 is ONE OF THE BEST HP because its very light to wear and the PADS are really AMAZING and Isolation is perfekt



All in all the sony Z7 is realy Nice and get from me a TWO!

Nomax, I own a pair of Alpha Dog as well. Thinking about upgrading to the Alpha Prime, but now that I found the Sony Z7, I'm reconsidering. Can you compare the two please.

So how do these sound? I'm in the market for some sealed cans as a compliment to HD600 / HD800. My favourite sound signature for general listening is the HD600. If these are even close then they would be ideal for late night listening.

Oregonian (or any other Z7 owner),
 
Could you please check to see if the ear pads are easily removable?
 
I really need to have it confirmed if they can be removed or not.
 
Thanks.

The ALPHA DOG is more neutral then the Z7

Z7 is a funny headphone,the ALPHA DOG is the much more a audiophile HP as Z7

Is this really true?
Are you speaking from experience?
And in what aspect do you think this? Overly bassy?
 
I'd love a comparison with the HD700 if anyone have those to compare. :)
