Yeah I know they are different, thing is I have never tried a pair of open back headphones? How much is the sound leak in reality? I was thinking of buying a nice pair for music while travelling EuropeYou're comparing two different type of construction based headphones. While M50x is a closed back design, HD 598Se on the other hand is an open back design.
Both of them have their own pros and cons. [ Open back - better acoustic performance and sound-stage, but sound leakage// Closed back - confined sound stage, but better highs and noise cancellation ]
PS : M50x is not suited for use during summer. :sigh: They are on the not-so-comfortable side.
