The one I finally got (because I couldn't put it off any more)
is a Sony in silver. I bought a black cloth napkin for $2
and put that on top with enough overhang to cover up the
display when the thing is running.

I'd prefer the over/under arrangement for the tray and
led display as well. But some of us play in this hobby on the
low end and haven't branched out into things like NAD.

I'm wondering if the aversion to black is a cultural thing.

For me, black goes with a darkened room for media viewing.

And anything lit up in my filed of peripheral vision is
a distraction. It's not aesthetic, it's physical.
