      Not necessarily! they are great for at home, especially if you have a kid or grandparent you have to be able to hear. Not so much for the bus though

        Are there any good(less bulky and good sound quality) open back headphones for using on the bus (or commute) ?

          Personally, I wouldn’t recommend open back for commute as you can hear everybody else and everyone else can also hear you. They are very much moreso for at home use.

      They’re really great sound quality, but usually pretty bulky. I was joking because they let sound out very easily, so it wouldn’t be much better for other people than phone speakers.
