Active noise cancellation utilises more advanced kind of tech to reduce unwanted ambient sounds. How it works, it listens to the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and then inverts the soundwaves to cancel it out. In simple terms, it's like having +1 (noise) then producing -1 (counter sound by the device) giving 0 which results in a reduced level of noise.
JBL Live Pro 2 have ANC enabling you to listen at lower volume levels, causing less ear fatigue since you don't have to crank up the earbuds volume to outcompete background sounds.

both devices can produce equal bass
BLX Earbuds's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, high-frequency response tells how well an audio device generates high recognizable frequencies and if it makes any adjustments to the signal while at it.
JBL Live Pro 2's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, this implies that
both devices generate equal treble
SPL, is the level of pressure of sound, in decibels, dB, JBL Live Pro 2's measurement is 93dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
