I have a pair of Jabra Elite 4 from 3 years ago that is hands down the best ANC I've tried so far. But they are getting old, Jabra exited the earbud market so support is scarce (they don't seem to be recognized by their app anymore.) so I'm looking for replacements. I tried the Sony WF-XM5s and Sony WF-C710N and despite both being well reviewd I personally found the audio profile in both to not be to my liking and the ANC to be weak enough to not even really be useful. Honestly it's kind of insane to me how well reviewed the XM5s because for the money they weren't worth it IMO. I've liked JLab stuff in the past so I tried JLab JBuds Pods ANC & JLab Epic Lab Edition and while I found the audio in both to be to my taste the ANC in the JBuds wasn't very good and the Epic Lab was better but still not as good as the 3 year old Jabra. I tried the Creative Aurvana Ace 2 based on Soundguys review and while the audio was good and the ANC was ok they arrived defective and started All 5 pairs I've tried also had a case that was awkward to get the earbuds out of them. I use an Android phone so I have no desire for Apple Airpods. What other options are there out there with good ANC?
r/Earbuds • Best ANC earbuds? I've been disappointed by the big names so far. ->I just got the Jlab jbuds pods ANC, and I can tell you right now to keep your money. Everything about them screams cheap and rushed onto the market. Sound quality is terrible, along with the ANC with annoying app glitches. It's a shame because the fit is amazing. I'm in the process of returning them.
r/Earbuds • I need new Budget wireless Earbuds, any help? ->Count me as # 3. These are amazing, especially for the price. I recently purchased the new Jlab Jbuds Pods ANC, thinking they were going to be a competitor to the L4NC, and I was enormously disappointed. The Soundcore stomps the Jlab out in every category. I've read tons of good things about the Earfun Air Pro 4, but I have yet to purchase them. I tried at the Earfun website but they wouldn't accept my card (Walmart Visa) for some odd reason (Yes, I have plenty of money to cover these ten times over) and I refuse to let Amazon blackmail me into buying their ridiculous Prime service. Anyway, sorry about the rant, but long story short, the L4NC are astoundingly good. As a matter of fact, for the money, I think they're the best buds on the market today.
r/Earbuds • If you had $100 right now to throw at ANY earbud that gets LOUD, has great BASS and helps reduce the noises of normal day to day activities--what would be your TOP 3 CHOICES (in order)? ->I have not tried the X20, but I know that a good number of people hear have posted that they thought it was great workout bud. I have the non sport version of the Jlab Jbuds. The jbuds line really has very nice sound quality for about $50.00. At the gym I sometimes go to. Several people like the Jabra Active elite 4 or the more expensive Jabra Elite Active 8. They seem to fit well and sound really good for the price.
r/HeadphoneAdvice • Any good running headphones that go for under $120? ->I like the JLab Jbuds line. I have used Jbuds Air Pro or Jbuds ANC 3. JLab ANC is not that great, but these both had very nice sound. One Plus 3 sounds nice too from posts by purchasers. Edit go one plus or Earfun Air Pro for ANC missed that in title.
r/Earbuds • Recommendations for ANC Earbuds under $100? ->I will warn you the highest end ones we offer (epic) are more bulky than the go and jbuds. I grabbed all 3 pairs and it looks like (height wise) go is 14.5mm, jbuds is 16mm, and epic is 18mm. I found the epic sport earbuds to be too bulky to use in my helmet for skiing, not sure if motorcycling helmets have any more clearance though.
r/motorcycles • Good earbuds for sports helmet? ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
