Has Active Noise Cancellation (Anc)
JBL Tour ONE
✓
Audio Technica ATH ANC900BT ✓
Active noise cancellation uses more advanced technology to reduce unwanted ambient sounds. How it works, it listens to the sound pattern of incoming noise and then generates a mirror signal to cancel it out. In simple terms, it's like taking +1 outside (noise from your surrounding) and adding -1 inside (counter sound within the device) to make zero hence "diluting" the noise.
JBL Tour ONE allow you to listen at lower volume levels, causing less ear fatigue as you don't have to crank up the volume to overcome background noise.
Audio Technica ATH ANC900BT too have active noise cancellation making both devices ideal for plane rides and morning commutes. Each may work with different noise cancellation modes, pick the setting, mode, or noise cancellation type that suits your commute or that enhances your relaxation time.
Has Passive Noise Reduction
JBL Tour ONE
✓
Audio Technica ATH ANC900BT ✗
Passive Noise Cancellation uses well-designed ear cups to seal out unwanted noise. This is used for both in-ear earphones and over-ear headphones where the headphone itself will keep surrounding noise out.
The JBL Tour ONE sits tightly in place, creating an acoustic seal that reduces background noise and prevents your music from leaking out.
Lowest Frequency
JBL Tour ONE
10Hz
Audio Technica ATH ANC900BT 5Hz
Low-frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio device reproduces low audible frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it. JBL Tour ONE's lowest frequency is at 10Hz, the lower the low-frequency response, the stronger and juicier the bass.
Audio Technica ATH ANC900BT's lowest frequency is at 5Hz, this implies that
JBL Tour ONE got a juicier bass than the Audio Technica ATH ANC900BT
Highest Frequency
JBL Tour ONE
40000Hz
Audio Technica ATH ANC900BT 40000Hz
High frequency response measures if and how well an audio component reproduces high audible frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it. JBL Tour ONE's highest frequency is at 40000Hz, the higher the high-frequency response, the clearer and crispier the treble.
Audio Technica ATH ANC900BT's highest frequency is at 40000Hz, this implies that
both devices produce equal treble
Sound Pressure Level
JBL Tour ONE
95dB/mW
Audio Technica ATH ANC900BT 103dB/mW
Sound pressure is the average variation in atmospheric pressure caused by the sound, the sound level .i.e how loud something is can be perceived differently by different people so we need to have a way of getting an objective measurement of sound level expressed in numerical terms.
The sound pressure level, SPL, is the pressure level of a sound, measured in decibels, dB, JBL Tour ONE'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 ANC900BT's sound pressure level measurement is 103dB/mW.
Driver Unit Size
JBL Tour ONE
40mm
Audio Technica ATH ANC900BT 40mm
The driver unit is basically a mini speaker that produces sound in the device, its size dictates the loudness of the headphone. JBL Tour ONE driver unit is 40mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful and can produce better bass.
Audio Technica ATH ANC900BT driver unit is 40mm 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 reproducing high frequencies so yes, larger drivers can generate louder sound, but this does not mean that they produce better sound.
Impedance
JBL Tour ONE
32Ohms
Audio Technica ATH ANC900BT 35Ohms
Impedance is the device's resistance to the electromagnetic current, as electricity flows through a wire, it experiences electrical resistance that counters the flow of current. The resistance of a wire is measured in ohms. JBL Tour ONE's impedance is 32Ohms, the lower the impedance, the easier it is to get higher volume and requires less power.
Audio Technica ATH ANC900BT's impedance is 35Ohms. The impedance of earbuds is the electrical resistance of the driver unit present on the inside.
