    I have been looking into purchasing new headphones to purchase for my pc gaming and have been eyeing the cyborg freq 5s for a while. Practically every review states that they're great, but I had a few specific questions about them.

    -How well do they isolate noise? As in if someones sitting next to me, will they hear the sound (I usually keep my headphones around 30-50% volume).

    -If someones owned a pair for a while, how rugged are they? I'd plan on bringing them to school and vacations but not sure if id need a case or anything.

    -Comfort? Lots of people say they're really comfortable, but I wanna know if they can get bothersome after several hours of music/gaming.

    -Lastly how well do they work with glasses? I own a pair of gunnar glasses and wouldn't want to buy them and realize they don't exactly work together.

    Thanks!
