I don’t envy any company trying to steal some shine in the wireless headphones space.
There are endless pairs across the price spectrum, and a lot of them have similar features, sound profiles, and looks. Even if one pair does sound better than another, it’s difficult to convey that in marketing. Descriptions of drivers only get you so far, and hearing is believing in the wireless headphone world.
The fact is, when it comes to over-ear audio, the bar is lofty—like Olympic high-jump levels of altitude—and unfortunately, I’m not sure recent competitors like JBL’s $250 Live 780NC have the hops to make the cut.

Solid wireless headphones, but there are better values out there.
