Default Best looking receiver display...

Ok, now i know we all do this, while watching movies glance down and constantly look at the receiver just to be looking at it, so here goes. In your opinions which receiver has the best looking display, lights etc... not gui, but display.

Pioneers do look darn good, but when the lights go out the Sony 53/5400ES is stunning. For some reason i have always been drawn to the orange look of the yamahas

When my Denon displays "True HD" or "Master Audio" it is a thing of beauty.
