How much sound do these leak?
I wear my headphones on a bus twice a day. It is relatively noisy but I don't want others to hear my music. I was wondering how much sound they leak. Possibly how they compare to beats solo hd in sound leakage.

Best AnswerYes. Out of the box they sound muddy and very bass loaded. Burn them in over a weekend by playing loud music and they transform - the treble opens up, the midrange comes through and they sound very nice indeed. They remain slightly bass-forward, but nothing like the Beats headphones. They also drive nicely from an iPhone or iPod/Pad without separate amplification.

Is the cord detachable/replaceable like the P5s?
The P5s feature a detachable cord, which is great because it can be replaced if it wears out, which is a major selling point for me. Do these?

AnswerYes, they do, i don't have these headphones but the people at the apple store recommended them and showed me all their features, the pad is removable and the line can be replaced and separated from the ear pad.
