The second headset I received did not work out of the box. Ive used it both when listening to music with Qobuz & Tidal and these earbuds are spectacular. No, mine have a dark but reflective rainbow. Nothing crazy but will last you through what you need. A couple of points of advice, if you do get these: 1) they do need some "burn in" time. My daughter LOVES riding with us and it?s given us the freedom of exploring the city by bike using a shared bike. I wish the toe box didnt leave so much of the toes exposed. Happy with the look and the fit of them. I was thoroughly impressed with the Tozo T10. I love the fit and the feel on my feet and its not too heavy so its very comfortable to wear all day without any problems.
