Sound leak

[Nececelery]

I have major sound leak on the Steelseries Siberia V2 headset that I'm using. I know it's open ear blah blah, but people complain that they can hear my sound with crystal clear clarity - as though it's playing through their own speakers.

 

Is there anything that could be causing this, or are they exaggerating?

 

Soundcard I'm using is  Asus Xonar DGX. Any other specs required can be provided!

Crosstalk between the mic circuits and audio circuits - happens with lots of headsets - RMA or return - have a nice day

Thanks for the quick reply. Is it definitely an issue with the headset and nothing else? If so I'll return the headset and get it replaced/get another one, but I'd rather that be one of the last solutions.

Try it on some other devices, but it usually ends up not making a difference.

The headphones are for sure bad. The v2's don't leak that much sound, it's literally impossible.

Okay, thanks for the help!
