Has Active Noise Cancellation (Noise Control)
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro
✓
Audio Technica ATH TWX9 ✓
Active noise cancellation utilises advanced kind of tech to actively cancel noise. How it works, it listens to the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and then generates a mirror signal to counter it. Simply put, it's like having +1 (noise) then producing -1 (counter sound by the device) giving 0 hence "diluting" the noise.
The Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro have Active Noise Cancellation enabling you to listen at lower volume levels, causing less ear fatigue since you don't need to crank up the device volume to outcompete background sounds.
Audio Technica ATH TWX9 too have Active Noise Cancellation making either of the devices ideal for plane rides and rush hour travels. The Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro and Audio Technica ATH TWX9 operate with different noise cancellation modes, pick the noise cancellation type that you prefer for travel or that enhances your chill time.
Has Passive Noise Reduction

Audio Technica ATH TWX9 ✓
The Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro stay well in place, this creates a sound covering that tones down your environment noise and also prevents the device music from leaking out at the same.
Both of these devices have passive noise reduction which means that they tone down ambient noise without using ANC to cancel it out.
Driver Unit Size
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro
10mm
Audio Technica ATH TWX9 5.8mm
The Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro have a unit size of 10mm in diameter, the bigger the unit the more powerful, and can produce better bass.
The driver unit is the component that produces sound in the device, the unit size corellates with the sound produced by the device.
Audio Technica ATH TWX9 driver unit is 5.8mm in diameter,
which implies that they have a smaller driver unit than that of Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro by 4.2mm
, as many tend to believe 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 can generate louder sound, but this does not imply that they produce better quality sound.
Lowest Frequency
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro
20hz
Audio Technica ATH TWX9 20hz
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well an audio device produces low frequencies that can be heard, 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
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro
20,000hz
Audio Technica ATH TWX9 40,000hz
The Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response tells how well an audio component generates high human frequencies and if it changes to the signal while at it.
Audio Technica ATH TWX9's highest frequency is at 40,000Hz, this implies that
Audio Technica ATH TWX9 generate a clearer and crispier treble than the Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro
Sound Pressure Level
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro
25db/mw
Audio Technica ATH TWX9 102db/mw
SPL, is the pressure level of sound, in decibels, dB, Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro's measurement is 25dB/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 taken differently by separate persons, so we need to have a way of getting an objective measurement of sound level expressed in numerical terms.
