#17 JBL Tune 760NC: $129.95 Wireless Amazon $129.95 eBay
Pros: A budget wireless ANC headphone with a preference score of 91, the highest of any wireless over-ear measured so far. Sub bass sits about 3 dB above target for punchy, deep bass, and the mids stay within 1 dB. Battery life is 50 hours, 35 with ANC on, and it weighs a light 220 g.
Cons: A 5.6 dB peak near 3.1 kHz can make vocals forward, and a 7 dB dip near 10.9 kHz softens the top end. JBL does not publish codec support, and the score rests on a single measurement.

Frequency Response
How the JBL Tune 760NC measures across the audible range, against the Harman over-ear target that most listeners prefer in blind tests. Where the line sits above the target that range sounds louder (more bass, brighter treble), below it quieter. The curve is a single measurement, and both lines are shifted so their 500 Hz to 2 kHz average sits at 0 dB.
Measurement data: a single measurement from the squig.link database of capraaudio. Thanks to them for publishing their work.
