Product Information

However, if you don’t use your headphones while commuting, the longer battery life of the Live 500 might be worth it for some, especially since you can also have access to the JBL Headphones app and a great parametric EQ, which the E65BT are lacking. JBL has done it again with a robust design that’s stylish and practical with a range of different color options and overall provides excellent sound quality.

With the music at 100dB SPL, the leakage at 1 foot away averages at 37dB SPL and peaks at 53dB SPL, which is around the noise floor of most offices.

The JBL Live 500BT are fairly comfortable over-ear headphones but aren’t quite on par with the JBL Live 650BTNC. The bass and midrange is generally present despite the dips, and there are no excessively sharp peaks in the high end that often produce the worst results when it comes to sound quality. Even though you can’t use the headphones when it’s charging, it only takes about 5 minutes of charging time to get an hour’s worth of listening time.
