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
Just bought the JBl 770 NC and they are awesome, good price, good bass, good sound, also have an app to EQ and mess with settings. BIG THING, if you own a iPhone and use these, make sure your Loud Noise Reducer setting is turned off. They were extremely quiet and I didn’t understand why until I messed with my phone setting. I was gonna return them but when I took Loud Noose Reduce off they are the best.
Hi! Awesome to hear you enjoy them! And thank you for the tip, hopefully it can help someone else! // Chris
Bro , it makes a huge huge difference. Thank you very much
thank you for your honest review
How do you turn it off?
@@zionnoahluchmun3399 Hi! If I´m not mistaken you just push and hold the little slider button on the side, for a few seconds. // 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 bought them today after looking at a lot of reviews.
To be honest, I didn't want to pay another 50 euros for the Beats solo 4
There's no noise canceling either
The battery is said to last a bit longer.
After all, just headphones, we are not professionals who demand perfection while just listening to music.
The sound is quite good, they have very good bass.
That touch sensor is a bit confusing but probably takes some getting used to
Not bad headphones in my opinion
I have no desire to pay more money for a brand.
Thx for the quick review! Totally agree, they´re fine for the price. Which is also probably what most people are after I´m guessing. // Chris
Man I just bought solo 4’s yesterday and am super underwhelmed. I had jbl tune’s 520’s for like $40 and they were honestly better and 10x more comfortable.
@@stupidswagsmirks I deal with computers, software and hardware, that's how I learned not to pay for brands
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
@@Fripplez 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?
I’ve just seen that these are on sale for 50 quid at Currys so I had to check out some reviews first, yep it’s an easy purchase 😂
Yes, that would be a pretty decent sound-return on your money :-) // 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
Didn't like the band at first myself until I started wearing it with hats. 🧢🎓🎩👒🎩🎧
Well of course! 🎩🎩 makes everything better ^_^ // Chris
Thx for the review. Im looking for a good headphone (walking and training in the gym) Which one is suitable for me? Im doubting between live 770nc or 660nc. Or are you advising a complete different headphone? Thx in advance
Hi! Thank you! In the case between Live 770NC or LIve 660NC I would go for the one with the best price. The actual differences between them are very few. Personally I have a very hard time working out with over ears. Mostly because of the heat that gets built up. So I would go for a pair of in ear ones, perhaps with an ear hook. Like the powerbeats or something similar. That being said, my girlfriend uses a pair of Sony wh-1000xm4 for running so we are all different :-) // Chris
@@GetThereFaster thx!! I choose the live 770nc. Could buy it with a lot of discount. I have very small ears so in ear is always a problem. I'll receive it tomorrow! 👌🏻
@@carolinemeevis Awesome! Hope you like them :-) // 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

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
Hi! What do you think about for fitness? Which one? İs Live series good for sport?
Hi! Personally I can´t really use any over ear for any kind of sport other than walking. As for the Live-series I think they get way to warm plus they are a bit on the bulky side when moving your arms etc. However a lot of people still use them, as well as the Tune 760NC for working out. So it is of course very subjective. Sound, base and ANC is perfectly decent for fitness though I would say. // 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
thankyou for the review. although, i'm still doubtful whether to pick live 770nc or live 660nc. is the price worth it for some upgrades? personally i don't really care on the noise cancellation part, the sound quality is more important to me, especially the bass. thoughts on which to get?
Without having compared them closely side-by-side I would probably say you´ll have roughly the same experience with both of them when it comes to pure sound and base. If the difference in price is very slim I´d go for the 770nc, otherwise just get the 660nc :-) At least that´s my two cents :-) // Chris
@@GetThereFaster ah thankyou so much!. i just found out it's not out in my country yet, im guessing if it'll be out, the price difference will be around $50, so i decided to take live 660nc
@@hotcheese7287 Yeah, JBL seem to roll them out a bit slowly for some reason. Then I´d most likely just go for the 660nc as well :-) Hope you like them! // 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
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.
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
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
@@GetThereFaster For online meetings, which one has better microphone quality in your opinion?
@@bilgeozpek4309 Hi! I would guess that the Sony probably have a better mic. Haven´t done any extensive testing with them on that subject though, but Sony usually have a somewhat good quality to their things in general. Definitely not the best mic on the market, but probably a tad better than the 770NC. // 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
Thanks for the review. I don't have an iPhone. Is it still a good idea to buy these headphones? Can I get high performance from the headphones without controlling the features from the phone? (especially for noise cancellation)
Hi! I was using them with an iPhone as well as an Android during the review. Thought they worked just as well with the iPhone. I would say though that the app is somewhat necessary to get the best sound out of them, unfortunately. // 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
Do you find the 770 live is a lot comfier and more roomy for your ears than the tune? I can't decde which to buy but if the live fits better over the whole ear than the tune i think that would sway me to it. thanks!
Hi! I have not tested them completely side by side but as far as I recon the 770 Live sits nicer on me. Might be the overall quality though, as much as that the ear cups are a bit different on the two. I would probably advice to try and test both of them out in a near by electronics store if possible :-) Then pick whichever one sits (and sounds) the best. But fit is probably, almost more important to be honest :-) // 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
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
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
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
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👍🤝)
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
Are these good with laptops when connected with the wire?
Aswell as android?
Hi! I would say yes, at the time of the review I was using them with my (Windows) computer as well as with my iPhone. Both wirelessly and via cable. The sound is a little base heavy, but not to an extreme. Instead I felt they worked fine with both devices. Same when tested with an Android phone :-) // 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
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
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

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

Hey! please clarify it, like I am confused between JBL live 770NC and Sony ULT wear, I want to know which one gives me good sound & music quality,which gives me feel of every note in the music clearly and also good noise cancellation, and also like that build should also be good,comfortably fit, so which one shall I buy
Hi! They are very similar, so without testing the fit I can´t really recommend one over the other. The ANC is probably better with the Sony ones. Sound wise though both are a bit base heavy. So if you´re looking for a clear soundstage I would argue to try and find a pair of Sony WH-1000XM4 on sale. Otherwise and if you really need to pick between the 770nc and the ult wear, pick the one that has got the most comfortable fit to you :-) // Chris
@@GetThereFasterboth arent similar jbl not even close sony is fun and heavy bass jbl have a balenced sound and everything is normal interms of bass Cleary battery comfy sony ult would be winner
Hi, is the app essential? I always prefer listening to music without any sort of eq, as it comes so to speak
Hi! No, the app is not a must :-) You can connect the headphones over bluetooth just like any normal bluetooth headphones. I used them for a while with my MacBook, which worked fine :-) // Chris
I am wondering between sony xm4 and jbl live 770nc? for me microphone quality is very important, but cant find much information ?
Hi! To be honest the mic isn’t super on either of them. It’s ok but nothing more. I am actually yet to find a really good pair of over-ears when it comes to mic. The xm5 is a little better though. Best headphones I’ve personally tested so far is actually a pair of in ears from OnePlus, the Buds Pro 3. But in-ears might be out of the question. Which is understandable :-) // 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
@@GetThereFaster The sound quality on the Sony is really good. I do think the actual JBL pads and headband is better on JBL.

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: ruclips.net/video/IyCjbg5diu4/видео.html ). If not, take them back to where you bought them from and get them replaced! // 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 u feel Hesh Anc is better than jbl live 770nc......?....i m currently using an Hesh Anc and they sound pretty amazing and has a superb Anc
Hi! I haven´t tested them side-by-side but the Hesh are definitely nice. Sound wise both headphones also are very similar. I do however prefer the more soft, fabric design of the Live 770NC. But that is of course subjective :-) If you like them I would stick with them. You won´t get any extreme improvements :-) // 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
I got these for 60€, really good
That´s a really good deal! Hope you like them :-) // 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
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

the EQ settings he chose in the video were just random settings, I would not advise copying the random changes he made to his equalizer.
@@devin-5679 Ah, now I understand the previous comment :-D No, God no. I was just messing with the EQ settings. DO NOT use them as they were in the video :-) Thx for clarifying! // Chris
I tried both Live and Tune 770NC in Currys today. The Live had WAAAAAY better bass than the Tune. But the Tune fit perfectly for me and Live uncomfortable. EDIT: Maybe there was a bug in software, because they are supposed to have 40mm drivers, I'm confused.
Hm, yeah. Unsure there. There is difference in the material and isolation that can effect base. And I´m guessing there might be some software differences but not to the point where the sound should differ that much... // Chris
Can you listen to music through the USB-C cable or is that only for charging?
Hi! The USB is only for charging I´m afraid. You can use a normal (included) 3.5 mm cable to listen, but that´s the only wired way. // Chris
@@GetThereFaster That’s a shame. Thank you for answering. ☺️
@@JLPichelski Yeah, would have been nice! Np!
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
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
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
Which are better? The JBL live 770 or the soundcore q45??
Hi! They are pretty similar I´d say. If you have the opportunity to test both I´d say go with the one with the nicest 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
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 :)
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
Are these a better buy than the soundcore Q45?
Hard to say and definitely very personal what type of feel etc. you prefer. ANC, battery and sound quality I would say are fairly similar. So it probably comes down mostly to fit :-) // 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 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
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. 😀
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
I dropped those, they immediately got damaged. the sound is descent though.
Ah, sorry to hear that. Anything fixable? Nice to hear you like the sound though :-) // Chris
@@GetThereFaster thanks. I did resolder the speaker's wires. in order to do that I had to break the seal . there is some sort of a pressure sensor that works with the ANC circuitry that was affected with breaking the seal. if I enable the the ANC I will hear horrible buzz sound . if otoh i disable it the head phone will work fine without ANC and zero bass, wasn't able to find a repair manual. I'm buying the new Sony ULT.
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
Are these better than the bose quiet comfort ultra?
Hi! Sound wise, no. The Bose QuietComfort Ultra I would say are more on pair with for example the sony wh-1000xm4 or xm5. The Live 770NC aren´t bad though. Not at all. But in comparison with bose qc ultra they lack a bit both in sound and anc. However that´s just my personal opinion :-) // Chris
@@GetThereFaster thanks man
@@shawnjking4207 Np! :-)
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
are these better than the beats studio pro?
Haven´t tried the beats more than briefly so can´t say too much. But would probably argue they are a little better. However if you are looking in that price range I would really recommend looking at Sonys 1000XM4 or XM5 instead :-) At least that´s my two cents there :-) // Chris
Can i use mic of headphones with aux cable??
Hi! Unfortunately not, the AUX is only for listening. Mic is only via Bluetooth. // 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.

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
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 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
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
Gettherefaster@ Live 770NC sounds good?
For the price the sound is good, yes :-) // 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....
What is difference between live 770 vs 670
Hi! For the Live770 vs the Live 760NC is mostly a matter of the size of the ear cups and the isolation and extra sound capabilities they give. Otherwise they are very similar in terms of specs, batteri life etc. // 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
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
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
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
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
Can they be connected with a cable ?
Yes they can
They can, but I am pretty sure you will lose the microphone features. // Chris

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.
