Ensure the headphones are in pairing mode and check that your device is within 10 meters. Forget the device in your Bluetooth settings and try reconnecting.

Noise cancellation feels ineffective

Check the JBL Headphones App to ensure the ANC level is set correctly and verify that the earcups are seated properly on your ears.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To begin using your Live 680NC, power on the unit and ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your source device. Download the JBL Headphones app from your mobile store to configure personalized audio settings and fine-tune your noise-cancelling preferences. These headphones support both wired and wireless connectivity; use the included 1.2m 3.5mm-to-USB-C cable for high-fidelity wired listening. When not in use, fold the earcups inward to pack them securely into the included carrying case to protect the hinges. To clean, wipe the exterior with a dry, soft cloth, avoiding moisture near the ports.
