Thank you for being so forward with the models, wasn`t looking for live and you saying the modeling and not to mix them up is admirable for saving time!
Thank you so much! Yeah, the whole naming is just a mess. Sometimes it´s even hard to differentiate the models when having the specs right in front of you. And in some rare cases I´ve even came across a model being released with two different names. Possibly because of different regions. But still :-) Anyway, now I´m just ranting. Thank you again! :-) // Chris
A far better review than many others by bigger channels.
A ton of thx for the kind words :-) // Chris
Solid review. Just picked up a pair a couple days before coming across this.
I do recommend trying JBL's Personifi feature. It seems to boost audio quaility just a tad
Thank you so much! That is a great tip (that I completely overlooked while testing the headphones :-/). For anyone reading, the Personi-Fi (2.0) feature that is available in the JBL app basically creates a sound curve based on what you can hear, after performing a few listening tests. Thx again for the input! // Chris
I am thinking about buying the Jbl live 670nc. Is everything with this one the same (except te earcups)? And will you do a review about them as well?
Hi! As far as I´ve been able to figure out the internals and functionality between them should be exactly the same. I´m hoping to get my hands on a review example of the 670nc as well, but not sure whether or not it´ll happen. I would recommend buying and trying them to see if you enjoy the sound (and fit!) and then return them if they don´t feel right. Even though they seem to be using the same elements etc. I have a feeling the smaller ear cups will provide a slightly less isolated listening experience. So there´s probably a bit of difference in the experienced sound between the two. // Chris
Hi, i bought jbl tune 770 few weeks ago and am contemplating whether i shoulda gone for live series that cost 30 dollars more.. Do you think there is any significant difference in terms of sound quality between the two
Hi! Honestly no, I don´t think the sound is incredibly much better in the Live 770. You might notice a slight difference because of different isolating ear pads as well as that the microphones of the Live is supposed to be better as well. Other than that, it feels that there´s mostly design changes between the two. Where the Live has a little more premium materials (fabrics instead of plastic). If you can, buy the Live and try them side by side and send back the ones you like the least :-) In my opinion, both are good though. A note should be made though that I have not tested them side-by-side so can´t really say for sure, but that is at least my two cents right now :-) // Chris
Hi there, great honest and straight forward review. Are the cups roomy enough to wrap your ears without touching them? I read the clamping force is a tad too tight but it gets way better with usage, is it any true? I really like jbl's sound as it sticks close to the harman target and moreover that wonderful parametric eq lets you fix whatever is wrong for you. Thanks a lot
Hi! Thank you so much for the kind words! The ears do fit in the cups, but not without being touched and slightly (com)pressed by the cups. So, a very snug fit. I´ve been using them for about three weeks now and they are a little tight in the beginning, however they have definitely given a little over time. I would however probably still say they sit too tight rather than too loose. But I do prefer a tighter fit over a looser one, so that´s very subjective I suppose. Best bet might be to get them at a place where you know you can try them and return them if you don´t like the fit. Totally agree on the app though, the EQ really does fix the sound issues one don´t like (to an extent of course, but still!) // Chris
@@GetThereFaster thanks a lot. I'll consider getting them on jbl's site as it has a nice 30 days don't-ask-why refund policy. However I'll try to demo theme somewhere, if possible. I have a rather small head with average size ears so, perhaps, I'm nlt feeling it that much
@@davidferrandez470 Then I recon they should sit pretty nicely! But again, like you say, getting to test them is definitely the best way to go before sticking to a purchase :-) // Chris
Hi ! Thanks for the vid'. Is there a technical difference between the live770nc and the live 670nc without considering the supra and circumaural form factor ?
Hi! No, as far as I know and are able to search there are no technical differences between the two models. The padding on the ear pads of the 770NC does however create an extra level of passive noise cancelling, which I would guess adds to the experienced sound. I unfortunately haven't been able to try the two side by side, so can't really say for sure. But that would be my guess. // Chris
In this US this seems to replace the 660nc. The JBL naming makes Sony's terrible names seem well thought out.
The 670NC are on ear and the 770NC are over ear. Pretty major difference
Awesome content.
One question, which JBL model do you recommend for gym?
Hi! Thank you so much! Personally I can´t really use over ear headphones at all when working out since they get to warm. So can´t really give much advice there. However if you want to stay with JBL I would probably recommend like the Reflect Aero if you are OK with in-ears. // Chris
I just bought them online and I intend to use them for work outs. But there is a noticeable creaking/rattling sound I think from the Ear cups and/or the headband when I move my head forward especially with quick forward motion. It gets very noticeable when I try moving around a lot. I dont know if it is a defect of the unit I got or it really happens. Would love to hear about your experience on this.
Hi! My review example has unfortunately been returned to JBL so I don't have the headphones anymore. But as far as I remember there was definitely some sound travel from when you tapped on the ear cups or they touched something. However I do not recall and rattling noises, so that might be something to look a little more into. I did though found that the ear cups got pretty warm when wearing the headphones while walking or running. But I suppose that´s a bit of a personal preference as well. // Chris
This is an amazing headset I just bought today.
Awesome to hear you like it! Thank you for sharing :-) // Chris
@GetThereFaster Yeah, NP. It's pretty bad when these sound better than airpods that cost me 100 more for my fiance lol
@@antiproton9446 Yeah, that Apple-tax is pretty high :-D (Yet here I am using an iPhone anyway...) // Chris
Today I bought ❤
If you turn it on does it have that classic jbl intro ,the car sound?
660 live nc vs 770 tune nc Which would be the best purchase in 2023? Thank you very much for your videos, I hope you can advise me.
Hi! Sound wise I´d recon they both are fine. Personally though I´d go for the 660 Live. Mostly because of the nicer headband and the somewhat more quality material and build quality of the Live-series :-) Thank you for the kind words! // Chris
Im gonna buy this or alternatively Sony bt910n And im wondering which should i choose, audio quality is the most important for me
I´m guessing you mean the Sony xb910n? Since both headphones have equalizers attached to them (through their respektive app) and the sound is relatively similar I´d say there are also indeed very similar. The Sonys get overall good reviews, but with some ups and downs here and there. If you can, I´d say order both and see which one you enjoy wearing the most :-) Sound wise both will probably be smilar :-) // Chris
Has there been any step up changes from the live 660nc to the live 770 nc or are they exactly the same but just 770s are more new
Hi! I haven't tried them side by side but actual speaker membrane etc. seems to be the same in both models. So from what I understand they are basically just more new (great phrase by the way :-D) with a few minor upgrades in terms of functionality and batter life. Good headphones sure, but if you already got the 660nc an upgrade is probably not needed :-) // Chris
@@GetThereFaster okayyy thankssd
Are jbl 770 tune good and worth it? I want to buy new phones in around price of 770tune so are they good? Are they better in this price?
Hi! The 770 Tune are basically (from what I understand) a less luxurious version of the 770 Live. So sound wise they should be relatively similar, at least from what the actual speaker elements can produce. There is however some differences in material etc. that can affect sound, but if you want to save some money I´d say the 770 Tune are perfectly decent :-) // Chris
Thanks for the review. How are they for working in an office environment with people talking?
Hi! Thank you! I personally don´t prefer to use any Talk-Thru functions since sound quality is so reduced. But for using them with the normal ANC on I´d say they are perfectly fine. You can absolutely hear people talk, but the sound gets fairly muffled out unless it's really loud. If ANC is on the top of the list I would probably recommend taking a look at Sonys WH-1000XM4 which has fantastic noise cancellation (and are also on sale from time to time). // Chris
@@GetThereFaster Thanks a lot, I will look into them! :)
@@LegendOfTheBat Np! Hope you find something suitable :-) // Chris
Boa tarde. Ótimo vídeo. Esse Live 770nc também muda de almofadas como o Live 660nc?
Hi! Thank you! If I was able to translate the questions correctly I actually did not know you could remove the ear pads on these models. However after checking some other videos of older ones, like the Live 650, I would _guess_ that the ear pads on the Live 770NC are also removable in the same way. Unfortunately I don´t have the headphones anymore so can´t try and say for sure. But my guess, judging from the design similarities, would be that the attachment mechanism are the same with most of the Live-series headphones :-) // Chris
Você fez um texto hein tanto amigo😃 quero saber sobre isso também
@@GetThereFaster yeah they are removable im pretty sure
sim, 99% de certeza
Are these better than the 660NC? Also why aren’t these for sale in the US yet?
Haven´t compared them side to side. But apart from improved battery life and newer Blutooth-version in the 770NC I would say they are extremely similar! That is a bit odd. Perhaps they want to get rid of the 660NC stock first? :-D // Chris
Hey I know I’m late commenting but I have the JBL live 660nc and I love them I could just use an upgrade of sounds quality are the live 770nc worth it or should I go for another brand if I’m looking to upgrade?
Hi! Never to late :-) If you already have got the Live 660NC I don't think you'll notice that much of a difference in sound or design compared to the 770NC. To get some real improvement you might need to go a but higher in price, like the Sony WH-1000XM4 for example :-) But the Live 660NC is good :-) // Chris
I will definitely look into it thank you for the reply!
@@paradoxnature4762 Np! Hope you find something you like :-) // Chris
Good review! I have a doubt. When you mute the microphone it makes any sound or tuns on a light to know that it's muted? ⁉
Hi! Thank you :-) Great question! When you are in a call and press the mute-button (the one in between the volume up and and down buttons) a voice says "Mute on" and then "Mute off" respectively when you turn it off again. However there are no light indicating that mute is enabled or disabled. // Chris
@@GetThereFaster Manny thanks! 👏
I just bought the headphone and just tried to turn it on. When I connect it to my phone, I always hear a sound like "power on, connected" and after 2 seconds, another popping sound comes and the headphone disconnects and it starts saying the same things again and again. I put it on charge, but what if the same thing happens again?
Hm, that sounds odd. They should definitely not do that. Sounds like they are, for whatever reason, stuck in some kind of loop. If they don´t work properly after charging I would try a factory reset to see if that helps (instructions here: ua-cam.com/video/IyCjbg5diu4/v-deo.html ). If not, take them back to where you bought them from and get them replaced! // Chris
is there any significant difference between this one and jbl live 660NC ?
Hi! I have not compared both models side by side, but sound wise I recon they are basically the same. I do believe Live 770nc however has slightly bigger (deeper) foam ear pads. But apart from that and a few upgrades (Bluetooth version etc.) as well as better battery life I would probably go with the one you can get the best deal on :-) // Chris
Who's better: JBL Live 660NC or JBL Live 770NC?
Which would be the best purchase in 2023?
Thank you very much for your videos
If you can find the Live 660NC a somewhat fair amount cheaper than the 770NC I'd say just go with the 660NC. Sound-wise they should be basically the same, however the battery life and bluetooth-versions differ a little. But other than that, the upgrades are not huge in any way. Thank you for the kind words! // Chris
@@GetThereFaster Thank you very much, Chris👍🤝)
I got these for 60€, really good
That´s a really good deal! Hope you like them :-) // Chris
Does this reduce the noise of the sorroundings like AC or fan or my wifes mouth?
Monotone sounds like an AC, dishwasher etc. gets removed relatively well. AWC (Active Wife Cancellation) has unfortunately not been invented yet. You will just have to hug her instead
Lmaoooo
If u compared this to sony wh-ch720n which one is better? Overal
Very similar headphones. Both ANC and base is perfectly fine on both, if you prefer a little more base heavy sound that is. I do enjoy the fabric headband on the JBL but the Sony offers a more simplistic design. I would say it comes down to the ones that fits the best :-) If possible, go to a store and try both :-) None of them are at least bad. // Chris
So should i go for this pair or headphones or sony WH XB910N
Hi! I haven´t tried the WH-XB910N and the reviews seems a bit mixed. However from what I can read, as long as you want a more base-heavy standard sound, they are perfectly fine (as is the 770NC). If you are interested in Sony though I´d also take a look at the WH-1000XM3 that are now about the same price as XB910N. Or! If you´re willing to spend a little more money for even better sound and awesome ANC, go for the sequel WH-1000XM4 :-) // Chris
I am hesitating between a JBL 760 and the JBL 770. I don’t know anything precisely about the model difference but I want a headphone with good microphone which can get me a smooth conversation, good support for gym with noise cancellation and some good battery. What do you advise me please?
Hi! For working out I personally found the Live 770 NC a little warm and clumsy since they are rather large. I´m assuming the same goes for the Tune 760 as well since they are designed very similar. Mic and noise cancellation is fine though. So might be worth testing the one with the best deal out to see what you feel. Otherwise, and a little more pricey, you have the great Sony WH-1000XM4 where the noise cancellation really is superb. Also another popular working-out headphone alternative is the Beats Studio Pro. But again, then the price goes up even more. // Chris
Thank you for taking the time to respond. I would really like to stick to a JBL model with which I can talk clearly on the phone. What do you think ?
@@MerciaM.O No worries! I have tried far from every JBL headphone so hard to say. However indoor most of the newer headphones perform perfectly fine. Both the 770 and the 760. If you want a pair of smaller JBL headphones you also have the Live 670NC, probably making then not as warm to wear with the smaller ear cups. The only ones I would personally avoid are the ones like Tune 670NC that has got a material in the ear cups that I´ve personally found to deteriorate more over time, specially when getting wet. Other than that I´d say you till probably be happy with both the 760 and 770, as long as you are OK with the closed ear cups. // Chris
How do the headphones sound together with the iPhone? Is there an aas codec?
Hi! I thought they worked and sounded great with an iPhone. At least for the base-heavy JBL sound that it is :-) As far as I can read there is no support for AAC though. // Chris
Have the same headphones how come the jbl app shows u extreme bass 2 and live pro + tws eq too ?
Hm, that´s new. Could there be someone nearby that has them or that you have been near while having the JBL app installed? Otherwise they should not show up as far as I know. Are you able to delete the other headphones? // Chris
Hello, are these on the same par as the Under armour Rock headphones? Or like are they same headphones? They dont sell them anymore and i need a new pair! Please help
Hi! There I am unfortunately not sure at all. The Under Armour series of headphones does seem like a predecessor to the current JBL line though, so I'm guessing they are similar in a lot of ways. // Chris
Do they sound slightly better with cable plugged in?
Hi! Not that I noticed at least. Did most listening wirelessly though so can´t really say for sure. The headphones have unfortunately been returned to JBL now so can´t test it either I´m afraid. But I don´t remember noticing any differences when using the cable. // Chris
I am thinking about the jbl 770 live nc and the sony whxm4 and I think I will take the jbl because of the price, but I do not know whether those around me can hear what I am listening to, and whether I can hear them or is it isolated?
Is Sony worth paying more? Thank you for what you provide ❤️
Hi! The whxm4 defenitly has better ANC, but apart from that JBL gives them a good run for their money. I actually found the sound leakage of the Live 770NC to be pretty minimal. The headphones also provide a relatively good passive noise cancelling due to the thick material in the ear cups. // Chris
Didn´t see the second question, sorry! Hard do say if Sony are worth it. If you want the best ANC and that is what you´re after, then definitely go for the Sony. I would also guess that the overall sound is better with Sonys headphones. However the JBL has better battery life and are also quite a lot cheaper, but still with fairly good sound overall as well. So, I honestly don´t know. I can personally find it a bit hard to motivate larger sums for headphones that I sometimes just "throw in the bag" when I go places. And instead prefer to have a somewhat cheaper pair for that reason. But that´s just me :-) Also, thank you for the kind words! // Chris
@@iisalleell Thank you too for the comment! :-) // Chris
I'm not too concerned with high quality. What only matters to me is that I go to the gym and put headphones on my ears, in order to isolate myself from those around me by no less than 75%, and only those who stick next to me can hear my music!! what do you think? I apologize for the many questions
Pretty late but do you think it would be ok for gaming?
Hi! If you don´t have super high demands and requirements of spacial sound etc. they did work fine for some light gaming that I tried. Nothing too fancy but games like F4, GTA etc. was perfectly fine. As well as Fortnite :-) However I`d say you would need a separate microphone if you want to talk to others while gaming :-) // Chris
Hey, between 770nc and anker q20i, which one would you recommend?
Hi! I would probably go for the 770NC Live there. The anker q20i are great headphones, specially considering the reasonable price. However I would argue the sound is a bit more "full" in the JBL + they subjectively have a much nicer look. Both are though a bit heavy on the base. // Chris
770 tune nc vs 760 tune nc , which its the diference? Please
Hi! It´s a mess, right :-D As far as I am aware the only difference is that the Tune 770NC has improved battery life (70 hours vs 35 hours) as well as adaptive noise cancelling (meaning more NC-modes like Smart Ambient). Other than that, they look the same to me :-) // Chris
Hi! I will be maybe buying the tune version but i dont know if i should get the tune 660btbc or tune 770nc
Hi! If you have the option to, I would totally recommend going and testing them out first :-) Or buy with return for x-amount of days and test. If you mean the Tune 660nc or the Tune 770nc I would probably opt for the 770nc-model since of the earcups and the foam that do sit pretty nice. However, if you are on a budget the 660nc is ok too, but definitely a step down in sound and comfort. // Chris
@@GetThereFaster i think the 770nc price is fine, generally what i do is i search up reviews in the headphones but i can only find tune 750 and tune 710 reviews, are the tune 750 specs and the build quality and bass similar to the tune 770?
@@quentr019 I haven´t tested the 750 but looking at specs and other reviews I´d say they´re very similar to the tune 770. The ups from previous generations in both the tune and live series are usually not that major. More small changes (new Bluetooth versions, tiny bit better design, etc). // Chris
@@GetThereFaster oh okk, and since the 770 is a upgraded version of the 750, does that mean that the tune 770 is also an amelioration of the tune 660 or that an other model/series based of the design?
@@quentr019 Without knowing excatly how they think about the naming, I´d say you are correct. There however, and for som reason, are differences in between the different Tune-models in which foam ear pieces are being used. From what I can see the nicer ear pieces started with the Tune 7xx-series. // Chris
Between this and Sony's ch520n I dont know what to do (same price in my country)
Hi! Wish I had some good pointers, but you are right that both models are extremely similar in basically every way. If you can, I´d say order both. Try then out and keep the one pair that fits the best :-) // Chris
Guys, should i buy these jbl ones or skullcandy crusher evo? I want like good bass and sound quality
Hi! The Crusher Evo are actually a pair of pretty decent headphones for the price. However both tje 770NC and the Evo has got fair base and overall sound quality. I would definitely recommend testing both and keeping the one you enjoy the most. A lot of it comes to down to fit :-) // Chris
Hi quick question I'm thiking of buying this headphones for my girlfriend for the gym? Would they be good headphones for the gym won't fall of her head?
Hi! Personally I would not wear them while working out. Because the heat build-up from the very closed ear pads. They might also be a little clunky because of the size. For commuting and the likes, definitely, but for working out I would probably go with something a little smaller and more airy :-) But that’s just my two scents :-) For others they might work perfectly fine during workouts. // Chris
Are they good for bass and loud music with good sound and good noice cancellation?
Hi! The base is indeed nice and they do get fairly loud. Noise cancellation is ok, but if you really want great ANC I would probably recommend stepping up to like the Sony WH-1000XM4 for example. // Chris
@@GetThereFaster it's just that it's 400$
@@YourFroggy Yeah, they are quite a lot more expensive. Might want to take a look at the Edifier wh950nb or Soundcore Space 45. Both similarly priced with the 770NC and offer similar qualities :-) But then again, the 770NC aren´t bad either :-) // Chris
I am an music producer and i am looking for good headphones to produce music should i buy those to produce?
Hi! I am very far from a music producer, but as far as I´m aware regarding these and similar JBL headphones you do get a pretty base emphasized sound probably making them less ideal for serious music production where (I`m guessing) you want as neutral of a sound as possible to actually hear how the tunes comes out :-) // Chris
Do they sound better than previous model Live 660nc? The drivers seems now to be thicker.
Hi! I have unfortunately not been able to compare them side to side. Sound quality I´d say is roughly the same though. However I do think the padding on the ear pads is larger on the Live 770NC and there by also the isolation effect (that also makes them a little warmer possibly). But other than that it´s basically the upgraded Bluetooth-version (5.0 -> 5.3) and the battery life (50 -> 65 hours) that has changed. Someone please correct me if I´m wrong here though :-) // Chris
Which is better? This or Sony ult wear?
Hi! Hard to say and depends a lot on how they fit. I have only tried the ULT Wear briefly, but they did impress. So my bet is that they are probably worth the extra cost compared to the Live 770NC. But definitely try both out if you can to see which one you prefer best on your head :-) // Chris
I’m confused between Sony Ch720n and Jbl 770nc ….. my main preference is ANC and bass
Hi! Totally understand that confusion. They are very similar in both ANC and base (a little on the heavier side for both). If I had to pick one today I´d probably go with the JBL only because I like the full fabric headband. However the Sonys are a bit more sleek in the design so that´s nicer on the other end. I really don´t know... I am of absolutely no use here :-D I don´t think you will go wrong with either one. If possible, order both, try both and keep the one you think feels the nicest to wear :-) // Chris

I wasn’t sure if you or anybody in the comments could help me but, I recently broke my old headphones from Jbl. And I went to best buy to get new ones but these were the only ones in stock. I mainly use my headphones when on my trampoline, so I can jump while hearing music. But I’m not sure if it’s hearing the springs or my hair but it changes modes every 2 seconds. I couldn't find any videos on how to turn the ambient sound control off. I downloaded the app and turned it off but it still changes modes and turns right back on for some weird reason. Can anybody help me turn it off because I can’t even use my headphones with it constantly changing modes and my app turning it right back on as soon I jump. Please help🙏🏼
Ps. Sorry for my yap session
Hi! I suppose hair could potentially trigger the touch controls on the side to skip between the different ANC modes. However they should definitely not change from just moving the headphones (or moving your body with them on). I don´t think you can actually and permanently turn off the any of the sound modes, since they can just be re-enabled again by using the buttons on the headphones. I would try and exclude the sudden changes coming from contact with hair but other than that I sounds like something would be off with the headphones and they should probably be replaced. // Chris
Alright, thank you for the advice
@@SincerelyTaterTot Np! Hope you´re able to sort it out somehow :-) // Chris
I am new to the world of headphones and I do not know what to do. I feel remorse because I will pay this amount, although there are cheaper alternatives, but they are definitely of lower quality. Everyone around me advises me to buy a cheaper headphone, and when I ignore them and try to move forward with my decision, I feel arrogant and lack of humility. I'm bad at managing money, but what should I do? I want to buy something worth buying
Hi! I feel you :-) If you do like the look and feel of the Live 770NC you can definitely save some money by going for the live 660nc instead. I haven't tested them side by side but the sound is very similar and apart from better battery life and a newer bluetooth version on the 700NC there really doesn´t seem to be that much difference between the two :-) // Chris
Yo, the JBL Tune 770NC headphones are kinda weak on the sound front. I think it's 'cause they don't have LDAC or Hi-Res support.
I've been thinking about getting the Marshall Major 4 headphones. What do you think? I need something that's gonna give me some serious volume.
Hi! The Major 4 (or IV) is actually a pretty neat choice if you want volume! If you are ok with putting in some more money Sonys WH-1000XM4 are also fantastic in terms of volume (AND noise cancelling). // Chris
@@GetThereFaster or what about soundcore spaceone.. does it gives high volume ? Becoz it's has hi-res and LDAC support.....
@@rahulkanna2313 I actually have not tried them. However Anker usually does great products in general. Not sure if LDAC has an impact on actual volume (but is cerantialy does for higher bitrate). At least from reading other reviews they seem to be holding up very well for the price! // Chris
@@GetThereFaster thank you Chris....
How would these hold up in the gym?
Hi! Personally I think they are too warm to be used for working out since not much air is let out through the earpads. But they definitely have the base for it if you prefer that kind of music :-) Other models worth mentioning if you specifically want over ears for the gym use I would say Beats Studio Pro, Soundcore Q30 or perhaps (if you´re willing to spend some more) Sonys WH-1000XM5 or perhaps XM4. // Chris
Can people around me hear the music that is playing?
Depends on the volume level, but generally they do keep the sound inside fairly well. Some leakage is however present. // Chris
live version $200, non live version (770nc) $70.... feels like the older version is a better buy?
Subjective of course, but assuming you mean the Tune 770NC a price drop of 130$ is quite the value for money I´d say :-) // Chris
@@GetThereFaster yeah. I have the BT710 today since 2 or 3 years now. I like the sound, live the batterylife, but the headrest leather piece has loosen itself, its not worn, its like the "leather" shrunk :) so that is why i checked the 770nc and saw almost every tech retailer here have it for 70, and thats an ok price if the leather does the same on those. For 200 i would feel angry :)
I should buy this headphones for my sister's daughter. Unfortunately I can't try them before buy in store. She is still teen. Is this headphones for her? She like model over ear with NC.
Or I go to 670NC model? Money is not problem.
Hi! If she prefers over ears then the live 670nc will probably feel a little tight. The Live 770NC are pretty large and bulky. For home and commuting use, absolutely. But for walking or any type of exercise I would personally look for something smaller (like the Live 670NC for example if you want to stay with JBL). But that´s just my two cents :-) // Chris
@@GetThereFasterThank you for explanation. 😀
Dose the wire have a mic?
Hi! No, the included cable does not have a mic. So mic support is unfortunately only over Bluetooth. // Chris
How's the bass quality?
Hi! Definitely ok. At least considering the price. A bit on the "upped" side, but not to an extreme where the quality lacks. // Chris
How is it compared to Sony WH C720N
Very similar. However I do like the more fabric design of Live 770NC. Would say that the sound of the C720N is a bit more "real" while the Live 770NC is more towards JBL:s signature, base profile. ANC is also perfectly fine on both models. // Chris
Is the jbl tour one m2 better, like soud quality?
Hi! Sound quality wise I´d think are are very similar although the Live has a bit more base to it´s sound. The Tour are also a tad bigger when it comes to the grove for the ears, where the Live has a little more of a snug fit. Feature wise the Tour are (at least from what I can read, have only tried them briefly) somewhat more rich with a listening test to create the best sound for example. The ANC is also supposed to be a tiny bit better in the Tour. However the differences aren't extreme in any way. I´d say pick the ones that fits the best :-) // Chris
@@GetThereFaster thanks, i bought the live 770nc. Tour m2 is too expensive, just wanted to know the differences.
@@MisterRaiden12 Cool :-) Hope you like them! // Chris
@@GetThereFaster Ah yes, i am satisfied of my choice. I was gonna pick the sony wh ch720nc but it looked cheap
@@MisterRaiden12 Great to hear! CH720nc sound fine for the price, but do have a bit of a plasticy feel to them.
Whats the difference between live and tune?
The Live is the mid range line and tune is the consumer range line so in regards to quality the live is better
@@enegizedadam yes I researched about it and found that live also has a better bass
Hi, great question! Saw you already got an answer, but like @neutral_man1 wrote. Live is higher up on the quality range in basically all aspects. Better comfort being a huge part of it. And also better sound in general as well as some other extra features here and there. While Tune is more "ok sound on a budget", however it does have some great, cost worthy options! The JBL-naming is just terrible in general though. Not to mention confusing. // Chris
The live has a sensor in one cup that knows when it's on your ear and will pause music if you take the headphones off.. the tune does not.
Com'è la qualità del suono? Grazie
Hi! The sound quality is overall pretty good. It´s a little on the base heavy side but that´s expected from JBL. Other than that the sound is clear and detailed. Might be it a little confined at higher volume, but for the price I´d say it´s a fairly good deal when it comes to sound quality. // Chris
@@GetThereFaster Grazie mille per la risposta
@@Roccia-vw1uv Np! :-) // Chris
Hi, what about waterproof? can I use this when raining or something
Hi! As far as I´ve been able to find there is no disclosed IP-rating at all on the headphones. I would guess they are not super happy being used in the rain or even during overly moist gym workouts. // Chris
Can they be connected with a cable ?
Yes they can
They can, but I am pretty sure you will lose the microphone features. // Chris
How does the sound quality and mic quality compare to the Live pro 2 ear buds?
Hi! I would argue that the mic on the LIve 770NC probably is better than the one in the Live Pro 2. Not by any extreme, but the isolation and clearity I feel is better on the 770NC. As for sound, the base on the Live Pro 2 buds actually is really nice for the tiny form factor and I would probably say they've got a little more punch to them. But that's only my very subjective view :-) // Chris
Compared to crusher anc 2
Hi! I haven´t tried the Skullcandy Crusher headphones so can´t say anything for sure. But juding from other comments and reviews I would guess that the base in the Crusher ANC 2 is "more" than what the Live 770NC can produce. Whether or not the base still sounds nice on those maxed out levels I can´t really say. ANC though is probably better on the Live 770 NC (again, judging from other reviews). // Chris
I regret that I bought these headphones because they cannot be purchased separately Earpads...so when is broken earpads your headphones until you put to the bin.... thanks you JBL
Hm, they do sell ear pads for most of their headphones. However you seem to be right for the 770NC though. Couldn´t find it in their spare parts section either. Let´s hope they start selling them soon. Otherwise I suspect 660 ear pads should be pretty similar as replacements, but not 100%. Good input though, thx for the comment! // Chris
@GetThereFaster I hope they will be... otherwise it will turn out that these are disposable headphones for not low price. I'm really very disappointed with this
@@nygus201 You are absolutely right. There should definitely be extra ear pads available to buy. Took the liberty of chatting with their customer support and apparently they do not sell the spare ear pads in the spare parts shop (yet) but you can order them through the chat via their service centre. So at least not completely impossible from what it seems :-) // Chris
@@GetThereFaster I will do the same . Thank 😊
@@nygus201 Np! :-) // Chris
Tackar!
Tack själv för kommentaren! :-) // Chris
@@GetThereFaster Är noise cancelling skillnaden stor mellan dessa och Sonys hörlurar?
@@elwinberg Hej! Om du tänker på Sony WH-1000XM4 och M5 skulle jag nog säga att just brusreduceringen är bra mycket bättre hos Sonys lurar, åtminstone utifrån det jag lyssnat på dem. Brusreduceringen hos Live 770NC är absolut godkänd men inte i klass med Sonys. Sen är ju både M4 och M5 lite dyrare också, så något bör man ju få för de extra kronorna :-) // Christoffer
@@GetThereFaster Ja okej tack för svar👍
Should i get this or the soundcore q45? They are around the same price
Hi! I have not tried the Anker Q45 so can´t say anything for sure. However they do seem to be holding up really well in reviews and user comments so judging from that they definitely seem to be on par with the Live 770NC. I´d say pick the one you enjoy the design of more. Might also be that the JBL ones are a bit more base heavy if you prefer that. // Chris
I have a doubt, when i connect aux cable, will the mic for the headphones still work? I want to use it with aux for my mobile and laptop, so will the mic work when in aux mode?
Hi! That´s a great question! Unfortunately I don´t have the headphones any more so can´t test it. However reading about other headphones on JBL:s website the information (at least for those) states that the microphone is disabled in AUX-mode. And i'm guessing that this applies to most of their headphones. From their FAQ: support.jbl.com/dk/da/howto/microphone-use-while-using-wired-aux-connection-emea/000017940.html // Chris
Hows the bass??
Answered your first comment :-)
It's the worst, much cheaper headphones sound better. Mic catches too much background noise.
Wouldn't say the worst. If you want base and to have you ears completely closed in they are pretty fine :-) But the mic could definitely be better, yes. // Chris
JBL Live 770NC vs JBL | Tune 770NC ??? difference ???
ua-cam.com/video/dAC2blnU_mQ/v-deo.html
Very similar in terms of specs. The Live-series is a bit more "premium" in terms of build quality and use of fabrics instead of plastics etc. Plus slightly better ANC as well as a somewhat wider soundstage. Nothing extreme though. Most focus is on the build quality. // Chris
@@GetThereFaster thanks for the replies
