What is the base exchange? I never heard of another model even on he Pioneer website. I agree the silver stuff is too much. That is the way ot goes though this decade is silver last one was black and the one before was silver. I think manufacturers do it on purpose so you have to upgrade. Even TV's were coming in that charcoal grey for a while now it is silver and black. Some even went to gold, which I liked but that was TEAC and stuff like that.
