Wireless audio with long-lasting battery life
JBL's Live 780NC over-ear headphones are currently listed at $139.95, reduced from $249.95. The wireless model combines active noise cancellation with high-resolution audio support and a design intended for extended listening.
Its 40mm drivers cover a stated frequency range of 10Hz to 40kHz, while Bluetooth 6.0, LDAC and LE Audio support wireless playback with compatible devices. JBL's app includes a 10-band equalizer and sound profiles, giving listeners options to adjust the bass-forward default tuning.
Other features include Bluetooth multipoint for two connected devices, playback that pauses when the headphones are removed, and physical and touch controls. JBL rates battery life at up to 80 hours with noise cancellation off, or 50 hours with it on. The earcups pivot and fold flat, though the headphones are not water- or sweat-resistant.
As wireless headphones continue to combine longer battery life with personalized audio settings, models like the Live 780NC point toward more adaptable everyday listening.
