I, too must say that I am insanely giddy about my Denon car audio. I managed to
get their best CD head unit with a 10-disc changer for REEAL cheap (no asbestos
gloves, either). I thought my speakers were faulty, previously, but when I
installed it, I was flat amazed at the sound.. The only drawback, and yes, it
does irk me, is that I don't think I can switch my green illumination. I think
the old Denon stuff was red, and the change was recent.
I've got the DCT-950R. If anyone knows how to go from green to red, please let me
know. Also, since the front speaker grilles look to be riveted on, should I just
pop them off with force, or is there a better way (86 5ks no t no q)?
