Active noise cancellation utilises more advanced kind of tech to reduce unwanted ambient sounds. How it works, it studies the sound pattern of incoming noise and then generates a mirror signal to counter it. In simple terms, it's like taking +1 (noise) then adding -1 (counter sound by the device) to make zero resulting in a reduced level of noise.
The Jabra Elite Active 75t have ANC enabling you to listen at lower levels of volume, causing less ear fatigue since you don't have to crank up the device volume to overcome background sounds.

both devices produce equal bass
Jabra Elite Active 75t's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response tells how well an audio device generates high audible frequencies and if it makes any adjustments to the signal while at it.
JBL Reflect Aero TWS's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this means that
both devices generate equal treble
SPL, is the level of pressure of sound, in decibels, dB, JBL Reflect Aero TWS's measurement is 99dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
