ANC makes use of advanced kind of tech to actively counter noise. How it works, it listens to the sound pattern of incoming noise and after inverts the soundwaves to cancel it out. Simply put, it's like having +1 (noise) and adding -1 (counter sound by the device) to make zero which results in a reduced level of noise.
Audio Technica ATH TWX9 have Active Noise Cancellation enabling you to listen at lower volume levels, good for your ears as you don't have to crank up the earbuds volume to outcompete background sounds.

Audio Technica ATH TWX9 driver unit is 5.8mm in diameter,
making both devices similar in how loud their sound gets
, many people have a misconception that driver units of a bigger size automatically produce better sound quality.
However, large drivers usually have difficulty producing high frequencies so yeah, larger drivers can generate louder sound, but this does not imply that they deliver better quality sound.
Lowest Frequency
Audio Technica ATH TWX9
20Hz
JBL LIVE 300 20Hz
The JBL LIVE 300's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well an audio component produces low frequencies that can be heard, and if it alters the signal on its way through.
Audio Technica ATH TWX9's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that
both devices can produce equal bass
Highest Frequency
Audio Technica ATH TWX9
40000Hz
JBL LIVE 300 20000Hz
The JBL LIVE 300's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, high-frequency response shows how well a particular audio device produces high audible frequencies and if it changes to the signal on its way through.
Audio Technica ATH TWX9's highest frequency is at 40000Hz, this means that
Audio Technica ATH TWX9 can produce a clearer and crispier treble than the JBL LIVE 300
Sound Pressure Level
Audio Technica ATH TWX9
102dB/mW
JBL LIVE 300 95dB/mW
The sound pressure level, is the pressure level of sound, measured in decibels, dB, JBL LIVE 300's measurement is 95dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
Audio Technica ATH TWX9's sound pressure level measurement is 102dB/mW. How loud a device is can be perceived differently by separate people, so we need to have the means to get a standard measurement of sound level expressed in numerical terms.
