I bought the silver, because the didnt have the gold. I am very grateful that I have found these. These are beautifully designed impressive overears headphones. THEN, I can consider a pair of fancy noise cancelling headphones (and let my passenger use these). Super high sound quality and undistorted bass. Mic sounds great and clarity is strong. Its been almost 5 months since I got these shoes and theyre barely wearable because the backs have legitimately broken down and deteriorated. Now thats what Im talking about! Most comfortable earpiece Ive found. Returned it.
