Live 660NC - Wireless Over-ear Noise Cancelling headphones, JBL Signature Sound, Voice Assist, Up to 50Hrs of Battery with Speed Charging, Comfort-fit fabric headband and carrying pouch (Black)

I’ve now had these for 3 years. Never had an issue, they are incredible for flights. They block out noise so well. They apply a little pressure to the head which doesn’t bother me but it may bother some. Very comfortable and they dont bother my ears. I have 10 piercings in my ears and these have never given me an issue with any of them. Well worth the money because they will last a long time. The sound quality is good, I wouldn’t mind if they could actually play louder but other than that, I love these. Will definitely buy them again

My fave pair of headphones. I've just become accustomed to using Bluetooth now, and the charge lasts me all day for listening wirelessly! Comfy, good quality of sound, and the option to turn the noise cancelation on and off is super useful for me. I can effortlessly switch from Bluetooth with my phone to an audio jack on my computer, so these headphones suit all my needs perfectly. No wonder so many people recommended I try JBLs, and if you can get these on sale like I did, it's definitely the $60 to me!

First of all, hopefully my review is fair but please read this with a grain of salt. I do consider myself an "audiophile" which frankly isn't a status symbol of my knowledge on audio, it's simply that I have hole in my pockets from spending on audio gear. I do own several high end TOTL IEMs and Headphones from the likes of Empire Ears, Unique Melody, Meze, Hifiman and Audeze, but I am also trying to be as fair as possible in my review here as I can't compare any of these brands to JBL. But on the other hand, I do have other "consumer" headphones from Sony and Soundcore, so I'm trying to frame this review around that as a comparison. I was looking for something simple that I can occasionally take with me to the gym, for walks, at an airplane, etc., where I wouldn't be absolutely paranoid about dropping, scratching or breaking them in the process. From the reviews both within Amazon and other sources, it seemed like a "safe" bet with a 4.5 rating on Amazon and some mixed reviews from other sources. I've mainly seen these compared to the Soundcore Q30 (which I bought and returned), and folks seem to generally lean towards Soundcore instead between these two. Let me start by saying there is NO comparison to the Soundcore Q30. In terms of build quality and sound quality, these JBL Live 660NCs are light years ahead. Compared to something like the Sony WH1000XM5, believe it or not, I actually prefer the tuning on the JBL, but the ANC and mic quality on the Sony is definitely better, and Sony of course supports LDAC which these JBLs don't. Frankly, not a big deal, since if I really want to hear "HiFi" music I can simply plug these into my headphone amp with the provided wired cable (which I'll get into in a bit). Sound quality: Harman target, executed beautifully. You get the boosted lows, somewhat recessed mids and boosted highs, but they respond extremely well with EQ either through the JBL app or Wavelet for Android (which I'd recommend over any headphone manufacturer app anyways). Both female and male voices are clear, crisp, not too sibilant, instrument separation is fantastic, above average staging, and there's zero "muddying" of the sound especially when EQ is applied to boost any frequency range. The bass has "rumble", but again, doesn't muddy anything - it's thumpy and fast. Again, light years ahead of the "competition" such as the Soundcore Q30. Build: Excellent. Sturdy. Doesn't feel like "cheap" plastic. Light years ahead of the Soundcore Q30, but doesn't even come close to beating the Sony WH1000XM5 in terms of comfort - the Sony headphones are like wearing "clouds" on your ears. Ear cups are a bit small (I'll get into that later). Where I was the most impressed with was when connecting these to a good quality amp. I run a Topping E50 and L50 stack, and I almost feel like they turned into a completely different headphone with a wired connection. The sound was simply fantastic, to the point where I can (and will) compare these to the sound signature and performance of the Meze 99 Neo (~$200), and frankly responds better to a Sony WH1000XM5 connected to the same source. So short version: If you can experience these with a good quality wired connection (DAC + AMP combo) I definitely recommend trying it out. Now to the "bad" stuff: Small ear cups, or maybe I have big ears. Would be nice to have ear cups that are a tad bit bigger to fit bigger ears. Wired connection - I am trying to understand why JBL wouldn't just provide a standard 3.5mm connector rather than a 3.5mm to 2.5mm connector - Why? For Bluetooth, the max supported codec is AAC, which again is fine considering the price and I wouldn't expect LDAC at this price point so this really isn't a negative call out to JBL. Are these "audiophile" grade? No. But you can't expect that for $99. What you get is an excellent pair of headphones packed with basic features, with excellent sound, portability, build quality, that won't make you cry if they break.

Out of the box, good solid headphones with decent sound and nice features. Bluetooth pairing was easy with phone, turntable and tv. Battery life seems good, I only charged them for two hours and put them to work so time will tell. Best things about them so far, the headband is adjustable and quite comfortable. The JBL app is super helpful setting them up for noise cancellation and eq customization. With added bass they sound better and pair nicely with my vinyl collection. Cons - none really, I was not impressed with the initial sound quality after having many JBL speakers over the years, but a little fine tuning did the trick. Overall, a very nice set of headphones for a great Prime Day deal. Not sure they are worth the everyday asking price, but these are my first pair ever.

Muy buen producto. El audio me parece excelente sin ser un audiofilo. La duración de la batería no se ha demeritado. La cancelación de ruido es sobresaliente; en viajes en avión te olvidas del ruido ambiente del aeropuerto y durante el vuelo, únicamente percibes lo necesario para estar alerta. Para llamadas entra mucho ruido ambiente por el micrófono, lo que te lleva a desactivarlos para realizarla directo del celular o moverte a un lugar con ruido razonable para el sistema. Recomiendo ampliamente la marca y el modelo que adquirí. las almohadillas empiezan a deteriorarse y espero en un futuro próximo encontrar repuestos. La almohadilla de la diadema está recubierta con un textil tipo malla de muy buena calidad; estoy seguro durará hasta que los audífonos mueran. Septiembre 2025: A comprar almohadillas. El recubrimiento se desintegró. Compré unos Sony y dejé estos guardados en un estuche que les compré para mantenerlos sin que se deterioraran. Agregué un desecante para que la humedad no los afectara más. Los saqué para conectarlos a una tele y el recubrimiento se quedó sobre mi. Ahora compré almohadillas textiles. Veremos cómo resultan, pero ya es otro cuento. La diadema impecable por ser textil.

Excellent value for the price; high-quality feel; great frequency response and tonal quality — nicely balanced; very secure and comfortable fit; good noise cancelling feature; good battery life. Compared to units in the $400+ range, this unit competes well in sound quality, but slightly less so in noise cancelling.

كل شي فيها رهيب بصرااحة كل شي بدون استثناء 😍👍🏻👍🏻

لاحظت بعد ٥ شهور تقريبا صارت السماعه تفصل البلوتوث من نفسها ويرجع يشبك، ويتكرر هذا الشي مره كثير ولا ادري ايش سبب المشكله

- Comfortable ear cups. After about 2 hours, my ears feel slightly sore, but a quick break from them does the trick and I put them back on. - Great sound, but base isn't as great as the JBL 650s, but still good. - Compared to the 650's, they are slightly better in terms of the design (metallic accents vs muted accents) and better mid-tones, as well as better battery life and faster charging. They also connect to multiple devices at once, and have more features regarding sound. - Highly recommend to students who don't want to break the bank but still need noise cancellation and enjoyable sound.
