If active noise cancelling for quieter environments is essential, along with the convenience of wireless connectivity, the JBL Tune 660NC would be a suitable choice, especially useful for air travel. However, they may not be as comfortable for extended use and have less impressive sound quality. On the other hand, if you prioritize high-quality sound on a budget and do not mind a wired connection, the KZ ZSN Pro with Mic would be the better option, offering good sound and mic quality, which may be ideal for both music and gaming. Keep in mind the KZ's lack wireless features and active noise cancelling. Give Feedback

"The JBL Tune 660NC is the best value you can get from a set of on-ear headphones. There's no companion app so you don't get many additional features, but everything the JBL Tune 660NC sets out to do, it does well. At this price, the JBL Tune 660NC is an easy recommendation for on-ear headphone lovers"

"Undoubtedly the focus and the star of the show, the ZSN Pro’s bass is big, bold and bangin’. The amount of gusto in the low end should satisfy anyone who likes a large lick of bass and even certified bassheads will probably get a kick out of this."
