Does anyone still make receivers with amber displays?

The Yamaha HTR-61x0 were amber but then they switched the white/blue display with their HTR-62x0 units.

Yech!

Some of the Yamaha's still have them. A quick look on Crutchfield showed a few models.

Most of the RX series are still amber I think.
The RX-Vx63 were put out around the same time the HTR-61x0 were. The newer models, RX-Vx65 have the white/blue display. I'll probably end up getting one of the RX-Vx63 if it has more than 2 HDMI inputs.

I miss the amber displays too :( but I do like the white/blue displays I recently acquired an old Onkyo and the fluorescent display is just green/aqua probably no color filter as fluorescent displays are that color already
If you are adventitious you can probably take the color filter out for an orange/amber one if you want (WIth a voided warranty of course) but I have a fluorescent display by my HTPC for pc stats and I had no luck finding the color filters except the over priced ones from Matrix Orbital
