Has Active Noise Cancellation (Noise Control)

✓
JBL LIVE 300 ✗
Active noise cancellation makes use of more advanced technology to actively counter noise. How it works, it studies the sound pattern of incoming noise and inverts the soundwaves to cancel it out. Simply put, it's like taking +1 (sound from your surrounding) and producing -1 (inverted noise) to make 0 hence "diluting" the noise.
The Audio Technica ATH TWX9 have ANC enabling you to listen at lower levels of volume, good for your ears since you don't need to crank up the device volume to overcome background sounds.
Has Passive Noise Reduction

JBL LIVE 300 ✓
The JBL LIVE 300 stay well in place, this creates an acoustic covering that reduces your environment sounds while preventing the earbuds voice audio from leaking out at the same.
Both Audio Technica ATH TWX9, and JBL LIVE 300 have passive noise reduction which means that both reduce ambient noise instead of actively using ANC to cancel it out.
Driver Unit Size
Audio Technica ATH TWX9
5.8mm
JBL LIVE 300 5.8mm
The JBL LIVE 300 have a unit size of 5.8mm in diameter, the bigger the unit the more powerful, therefor producing better bass.
The driver unit is basically a mini speaker that produces sound in the earbuds, the unit size dictates the sound made by the device.
Audio Technica ATH TWX9 driver unit is 5.8mm in diameter,
making both Audio Technica ATH TWX9, and JBL LIVE 300 similar in how loud their sound can get
, 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 it's true that, larger drivers can generate louder sound, but this does not mean that they produce 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 a particular audio component generates low recognizable frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it.
Audio Technica ATH TWX9's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this implies that
both devices make sound with equal bass
Highest Frequency
Audio Technica ATH TWX9
40000Hz
JBL LIVE 300 20000Hz
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 while at it.
Audio Technica ATH TWX9's highest frequency is at 40000Hz, this means that
Audio Technica ATH TWX9 can generate 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 level of pressure of sound, 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. The sound pressure level, something is can be considered differently by separate persons, so we need to have the means to get an objective measurement of sound level expressed in numerical terms.
