Some of them you can dim or turn off if you prowl through the fine print in the instructions.

The only light on my setup that bothers me is the bright blue light coming from my PS3. All the other lights are faded enough for me not to notice.

I love the little blue lights on my Rotel. However, I do have a Salamander stand that has a black see through grill that dims them a bit. Sometimes, late at night I simply sit back in the dark and admire my set up and make devious plans for my next big upgrade !

My gear is outside the theater and is controlled from the theater with an IR Repeater. The Sub has a little light but I put some electrical tape on it which is pretty much invisible since it's black (the Sub that is.)

My Dedicated HT has no windows and complete light control so those lights would bother me if they had the chance to.

I make my fiance stand in front of my equipment to block the lights. I bought the TV, surround sound, blu-ray player, couch. She can stand there and imagine what the movie is like.


I have a Panamax 5400 power conditioner, it has some of the brightest LED lights ever. I have a strong enough attention span not to get distracted by things like lights on my equ.... oh look a bird.
