Silver body + Olive Alcantara combination is gorgeous, pictures don't do it proper justice (sometimes I wish I had better "eye" for taking pictures but oh well, one cannot be good at everything )! In CMA's review's thumbnail, the light makes Binom look silver rather than black and when I found out few months ago that only black version exists, I was a bit disappointed. But then Pierre (official distributor from France) mentioned that if I'm willing to wait few weeks, I might be able to get one of the first silver ones. And the choice was simple - I waited and finally got them a week ago. Striking aesthetics, definitely not stealthy as full black version, and (judging from my very limited time on them) great performance as well!

I like the first version better, it was more sleek. I liked the shine and unique look it had. However, those pads! Oh, my! Wish I had them :/ They look so comfy.

The first working version of silver variant I've seen was with dark grey pads and I definitely prefer olive over that. Perhaps some lighter grey (something like in Focal Clear OG) might look better but all in all, decision to go with olive is not a bad one. If anything, it's quite a bit unique and I like that. That being said, I'm still thinking that I'd like to try leather pads at some point, on most of my headphones I strongly prefer leather pads over suede/cloth ones and I suspect I might with Binom ER as well. But must admit that suede pads are soooo nice to touch

Any news (price, availability) about the "upgrade" to the "2024 version" ? Apparently, owners of the "old" version will have the possibility to upgrade their headphone...
