Our Verdict
JBL CLUB 700BT Wireless
JBL Live 460NC Wireless
The JBL Live 460NC Wireless are slightly better on-ears than the JBL CLUB 700BT Wireless. While both headphones are comfortable and well-built, the Live 460NC have a more neutral sound profile, which some users may prefer, and have an active noise cancelling (ANC) feature that's able to cut down a decent amount of noise around you. However, the CLUB 700BT have better battery life and come with a carrying pouch.
