Man, that combination of Silver and Blue Flouroscan sure is pretty! Makes me wonder, though, why they didn't continue with blue lighting throughout the series? Imagine a nice turntable with a blue strobe. Or blue switch indicator lights instead of green and red. Those would have really looked smart, and they may have gotten even more sales from people who just had to 'trade up' so that all their components 'matched'.
Most puzzling is the SR-303...why in the name of all that's holy did they go with that sickening green display instead of blue, or better yet, why did they go with that cheesy display at all instead of flouroscans to indicate whatever it is that that thing is actually indicating?
Last night I could take it no more...I removed the faceplate and stuck a piece of blue stage lighting gel behind the panel. It's pretty close to the correct blue, though it's not very bright any more. Maybe I'll look into that indicator further, it's probably just a light bulb that does the ol' "color organ" bit, I can mod to put a brighter bulb in perhaps. At least it's not pea-green anymore.
