Has Active Noise Cancellation (Noise Control)
Sony LinkBuds S
✓
JBL Endurance Peak 2 ✗
ANC utilises advanced kind of tech to actively cancel noise. How it works, it detects and analyzes the sound pattern of incoming noise and generates a mirror signal to counter it. Simply put, it's like having +1 (noise) and producing -1 (inverted noise) giving 0 which results in a reduced level of noise.
The Sony LinkBuds S have Active Noise Cancellation allowing you to listen at lower levels of volume, causing less ear fatigue as you don't have to crank up the device volume to outcompete background noise.
Has Passive Noise Reduction
Sony LinkBuds S
✓
JBL Endurance Peak 2 ✓
The JBL Endurance Peak 2 stay tightly in place, creating a sound seal that reduces your environment noise and also prevents the earbuds voice audio from leaking out .
Both Sony LinkBuds S, and JBL Endurance Peak 2 have passive noise reduction which implies that both limit ambient noise instead of actively using ANC to cancel it out.
Driver Unit Size
Sony LinkBuds S
5mm
JBL Endurance Peak 2 10mm
The JBL Endurance Peak 2 have a unit size of 10mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful, therefor producing better bass.
A driver unit is the component that produces sound in the earbuds, the unit size determines the sound made by the device.
Sony LinkBuds S driver unit is 5mm in diameter,
which means that they have a smaller driver unit than that of JBL Endurance Peak 2 by 5mm
, many people have a misconception that driver units of a bigger size automatically produce better sound quality.
However, large drivers find it difficult to produce high frequencies so yeah, larger drivers are capable of generating louder sound, but this does not mean that they produce better quality sound.
Lowest Frequency
Sony LinkBuds S
20Hz
JBL Endurance Peak 2 20Hz
JBL Endurance Peak 2's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio component produces low frequencies that can be heard, and if it alters the signal on its way through.
Sony LinkBuds S's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that
both devices can make sound with equal bass
Highest Frequency
Sony LinkBuds S
40000Hz
JBL Endurance Peak 2 20000Hz
The JBL Endurance Peak 2's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, high-frequency response shows how well an audio component makes high audible frequencies and if it adjustments to the signal while at it.
Sony LinkBuds S's highest frequency is at 40000Hz, this implies that
Sony LinkBuds S produce a clearer and crispier treble than the JBL Endurance Peak 2
Sound Pressure Level
Sony LinkBuds S
✗
JBL Endurance Peak 2 93dB/mW
SPL, is the pressure level of sound, in decibels, dB, JBL Endurance Peak 2's measurement is 93dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
Has A Neodymium Magnet
Sony LinkBuds S
✓
JBL Endurance Peak 2 ✗
Sony LinkBuds S have neodymium magnets, when used in earbuds produce a higher sensitivity and substantial sound output while using less power. They can help produce music at quite a high SPL, with the use of high magnetic flux.
