A vote for amber LED lights on components over blue lights.

"LEDs under tubes are the worst. Macintosh? "
I agree, noromance.

I like Mac's. I get their thinking with keeping the traditional green, but under the tubes however immediately cheapens the look. Tacky/low rent. If anything, they should use amber, to compliment the tube filament glow. This was done on my phonoamp. Can't really tell it's additional lighting since it matches. The only place green looks appropriate is the meters on my MR71.

Here's the thing with amber-it matches tube glow. Seeing tube glow in a dim room is equal to having a fireplace. We all like to look at a fireplace-soothing.

Looks like someone thought this was the "SAVE THE WORLD" forum?
Lets project some GUILT on everyone's prosperity! Throw your system out the window everyone.

I can’t understand manufacturers still holding on the the blue LED thing?

It’s not 1987-The Good Guys store closed decades ago.It reminds me of cheap Chinese audio gear. Note I said "cheap" Chinese audio gear(EVERYONE has something that has a Chinese connection in their rig-deny or accept it.) I disconnect them when possible. My 10 year old Fosgate phono amp has a chevron shaped blue led that turns on when it’s warmed up, ready to go. Awful. If it were amber, it would compliment the tubes and look great.

Aesthetically, amber is the way to go, IMO. They mimic the glow of tubes. Boycott blue LED gear!

Black tape is a must in every audiophools drawer.

It's an internet thread. You have to expect input from all angles. Comments not directly addressing the theme -ignore like the annoying little kid begging for attention.

Let the audio geniuses comment however they want, just don't respond.
They eventually go away. A thread eventually gets back on track with the kids who do want to play.
