If sound quality for music is a priority and you're using them in a stationary setup, the Beyerdynamic 770 Pro offers very good overall sound and comfort but lacks a built-in microphone and wireless capability, making them less versatile for calls and on-the-go use. The JBL Tune Buds are significantly more portable, offer wireless convenience, and are suitable for exercise with sweat and dust resistance, but they may not match the Beyerdynamics' sound for music and TV. The JBLs are optimized for both Android and Apple devices and have customizable app controls, while the Beyerdynamic has a simple wired connection without app integration. Choose the Beyerdynamic for focused listening in a quiet environment, or the JBL if you need something versatile for everyday use, including physical activities and travel. Give Feedback

"Altogether, when you consider its accessible price tag, the performance, the build, and its outstanding comfort, I think that the DT770 Pro is fantastic option for anyone looking for a closed-back headphone in the sub-$1,000 range, and I can confidently give it a strong recommendation."

"JBL’s Tune Buds stick with the company’s signature bass-heavy sound by default, but a quality in-app EQ lets you sculpt the audio to taste. These noise-cancelling true wireless earphones also mitigate environmental distractions fairly well for the price and offer good battery life. If you're specifically seeking bold, bass-tuned audio out of the box, the Tune Buds are worth a listen."
