[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are great quality and have great sound. I love how well the noise canceling works. I took these with on our road trip and it helped me keep my anxiety under control for the whole six hour drive.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great sound easy to use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Two weeks of use and I love these headphones. I am technologically challenged yet these are easy to use with Google and I know I have not yet learned all of the features. The sound quality is great (I have a surround sound system and high expectations), noise canceling effective enough to not hear beagle barking and I love features like how my movie will pause when I pull off the headphones. My only complaint is that the buttons on the headphones are so small and feel the same so my old fat fingers are not working well with them, removed a star in rating. But, it did lead me to use automated features so that is good. These headphones would make a great gift, especially for Mother’s Day or Father’s Day. Love the blue color, we bleed blue in KY.

Nice headphones.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First off I want to say these headphones are very comfy. They are adjustable and fit nicely over my ears. I do have smaller ears, so for me I think it’s a great fit. The headphones themselves are aesthetically pleasing. I like the simple and sleek design. The right side has your power button, volume adjustment, noise cancelling button adjustment and the jack for the cord if that’s your preference. I really like that JBL added that feature, so you can choose between that or using Bluetooth. The left side has the port for charging the headphones. Both sides swivel which is cool too.
Now as far as sound goes I’ve tried all genres from rock to hip hop, dance and different types of electronic. The sound is great, but when you are listening to a song with deep bass I noticed you need to have the headphones on perfectly, otherwise you get some reverb. In my case, the left ear piece seemed to have the reverb. (Mind you, this only happened with the music turned all the way up.) After playing around with the headphones and listening to other songs I realized If they are off slightly from your head the reverb can happen. Once I realized this I didn’t have any issues. These headphones really do sound good. I honestly can turn up the volume on most songs.
As far as the noise cancelling feature they really do block out sounds very well. I used these while walking around the house, brushing my teeth with my electric toothbrush and lots of other background noises. I couldn’t hear a thing. These headphones have three features for noise cancellation. You can choose how much you want to block out, which I think that’s an awesome feature. These headphones also come with Google assistant and Alexa built-in. Unfortunately, I don’t use either of those so I can’t review that aspect. I do have an iPhone, so Siri can be activated too.
Overall these are really nice headphones. I would definitely recommend them if the features described are something you’re looking for. One thing that’s really cool is when you’re listening to music and take them off they pause the music. Then when you put them back on they resume. I love that! You can also adjust this feature. JBL never disappoints with sound quality. They really out did themselves with these. Style and comfort are a 10/10. Sound and performance I would also give a 10/10. I love these headphones.

A solid set of headphones

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As usual, very clean and presentable packaging from JBL. Out of the box, battery was charged for instant use. Very comfortable on the head. Active noise canceling works moderately well. Certain frequencies still pass through. Bluetooth connection was easily done. Sound quality is good, but not great. I feel they should really bring you into the music. Not so much unfortunately. Overall a very good performing unit.

Solid sound and battery life for the price.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this device and for the last week have been amazed with the sound quality produced by the 660NC. This device holds up well in terms of noise cancelation. Walking outside or around the house able to block out most noises. Solid battery life and fits comfortably on my head.

Great Active Noise Cancelling w Fun Features
on May 3, 2021

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I do a lot of airplane travel for work and wanted to try the latest offering at a price that didn't break the bank. I chose to try the JBL Live 660NC active noise canceling headphones. Right out of the box...Wow! Great quality for the price! Not nearly as expensive as the competitors but equally as good if not better.
My Breakdown:
My Breakdown:
MATERIAL QUALITY: VERY GOOD-top of the line feel of the headphones. They are padded, comfortable and look cool! Everything is expensive to the touch and feels very durable.
CARRYING CASE: Probably the weakest link for this product. It is a nice soft touch bag. It does work but when I am travelling, I would prefer to have the protection of an actual case. Still, though, not a deal breaker at this price point.
COMFORT: out of the box they were a bit tight around my head/ears. However, after wearing them a few hours and stretching the cones apart, they were very comfortable. The headband is metal and will retain whatever shape that fits your head.
BLUETOOTH: 5.0 it works well and can connect multiple devices. I had no issues with dropout. I was also able to get up from my airplane seat to go to the bathroom 7 rows up and no dropout.
BATTERY: plays about 40 hours (with BT and NC on) but only requires 2 hours charge time. Superb! It uses a universal type C charging cable.
NOISE CANCELLING: Noise cancelling is adequate. It will completely isolate average background noises (talking, intercoms, general "shopping mall" noises etc). It does struggle a bit with airplane engine noise when taking off and landing. Don't get me wrong, it does cancel the noise ...just not completely which is fine with me. There is a bit of "static" that can occur when landing as the engines are revved up to slow down the plane. It is not consistent but it can occur. It is a known limitation but once again...it is minor and doesn't detract from these headphones. There may be others out there that cancel airplane noise better but they don't sound as amazing as these and they are much more expensive.
AMBIENT AWARE: When using Noise Cancelling, you can set how much outside sound you would like to hear. Basically, the ability to hear important things around you but still filter out noise. It works well and kind of nice when you need to hear announcements.
TALK THRU: This feature allows you to take stereo phone calls etc while wearing your headphones. It works well but sometimes others on the other end say that my voice is a bit hollow or that there is noise in the background. JBL could improve this feature a bit.
JBL APP: a must have with these headphones. It allows you to dial in the sound from several different music sources to tailor to your liking. You can also control noise cancelling, and ambient aware from your phone.
It works flawless and is not a gimmick in any way. The customizable EQ makes the sound tailored to your taste. JUST DOWNLOAD IT!

GOOGLE VOICE ASSISTANT/AMAZON ALEXA: I use google assistant regularly in my daily life so I set these up to use the Google assistant. It works flawlessly and a lot of fun to use. I turn on/off lights when I'm coming and going from my place, all from these headphones. It was easy to set up and no issues with that tech. It's pretty cool and really surprising in a headphone in this price range.
SOUND QUALITY: Ok, now the reason why you buy headphones...the sound quality. These headphones have a very nice signature JBL sound to them. Deep punchy bass that is not overwhelming nice Vocals and detailed highs. I do feel that compared to the JBL Everest Elite 750NC that the 660NC lacks color and richness to the sound. The soundstage is not as wide or the instruments rich and full. I am being really nit picky here though. I had to go back and forth between the two with several songs to determine the difference in music quality. They are so incredibly similar but I feel the 660nc can be a bit harsh with hand claps and things of that detail. Once again, I still wouldn't hesitate to purchase these at this price point, they really are that good!
OVERALL: These headphones are fantastic and you will be hard pressed to find anything this feature packed with this kind of music sound quality at this price point. I highly recommend them. The 4 stars is only because the color/detail/sound stage isn't as rich as I would expect and the active noise cancelling isn't perfect when flying (see above).

Good noise cancellation heahphones!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got these headphones about 3 weeks back and have been using them continuously. I have liked them, and would definitely recommend to a friend, as they are a steal for this price. Detailed review below:
Setup : The setup was quick and easy. I was surprised at how fast it popped up and was discovered every time I try to connect. Gives the Airpods vibes.
Durability : The headphones have a good strong sturdy feel to them. The cushion on the head rest does the job good, and the light weight helps you forget that you have something wrapped up around your head. The buttons are well places and are interactive. They feel good to touch and are easy to locate.
Sound Quality : The sound is clear and crisp. I have been using these headphones for my meetings, and the mic has worked seamlessly. The active noise cancelling is good and is able to eliminate most of the noise around. I am in love with the talk-thru and ambient aware feature. Overall, this is a steal of an headphone at these price.
App : I had to mention a separate point for the app. The app makes it easy to personalize and tweak settings. It also has a lot of features. If you are getting these headphones, installing the app is highly recommended.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Comfy with great noise cancelation

from Omaha, NE
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got these headphones earlier this year since I needed a comfortable pair for regular use. I came across these with nice padding on ear and extra cushion in the headband. I love using these while cooking and cleaning around the house. With the noise canceling I can just turn on my music, get in my zone, and tune out the chaos around me. My teen son also likes to use these when we go on longer road trips so he can ignore his younger sibling and whatever the rest of the family is listening to in the car. I'll be purchasing another pair for him on his birthday or Christmas.
