Our take on the JBL Live 680NC Noise-Cancelling Headphones

The JBL Live 680NC is an on-ear Bluetooth headphone with active noise cancelling and JBL's signature sound. It sits below the over-ear Live 770NC in comfort and isolation but above basic on-ears on features, with app EQ, multipoint pairing and long battery life. Reviewers like the light weight and lively tuning; the on-ear fit and average ANC are the main trade-offs against over-ear rivals. It suits commuters and students who want compact ANC without bulk.

Questions and answers

Is the JBL Live 680NC good for commuting?
Yes. It is light, folds flat and its ANC handles engine and fan noise. It is less effective against voices and traffic, so loud trains may still get through.
How does it compare with the over-ear JBL Live 770NC?
The 770NC is an over-ear model with better isolation and a roomier fit. The 680NC is smaller and lighter, but its on-ear pads clamp more and its ANC is weaker.
Can I use it wired?
Yes, with a detachable cable, but noise cancelling and app features need the headphones powered on. Check that the cable is included before relying on wired listening.
Does it support multipoint pairing?
Yes. It can stay connected to two devices at once, such as a phone and a laptop, and switch between them.
Is the on-ear fit comfortable for long wear?
For short sessions, yes. Many owners find the pads press and warm the ears after an hour or two, so over-ear models suit all-day wear better.
Can I adjust the sound?
Yes. The JBL Headphones app offers EQ presets and a custom equalizer, along with control customization.
Where is the JBL Live 680NC Noise-Cancelling Headphones cheapest?
At Newegg, for $239.99, as of our latest check.
