Topic: Is the color of the light around the power and volume knobs constant?

I could have sworn when I first purchased the unit a month ago that the rings around the buttons were a cold blue color that matched the blue lettering of the Dark Volume panel. The rings now appear more whitish than blue.

I used the manual to adjust the brightness of the display panel; does that brightness setting somehow change the knob rings as well?

Red in standby
You could say creamy white when on.
Brightness display won’t change ring colour.  They are hard wired

I thought the Planck lengths seemed narrower with the astatine cable. ;-)

Guys,

The Light Ring turns "Antique White", and is simply an indication that the Bonded Amulite Phase Detractor, and Bi-Modial Transverse Reactance Vanes have Synchrophased, and the unit is ready for use.   That's really all there is to it.  Elegance in Simplicity.
