OK, I wasn't going to chime in, but the replies are running 10:1 in one
direction. I was surprised how nice the Centurion looks in black. I
have the two-tone grey Omni VI+ and 238 tuner, and used to have a
Centurion next to them (graduated to an Alpha 99 in, you guessed it,
Black.) I thought the black Centurion looked quite stately, really, and
much more attractive than my Alpha. I've always liked the two-tone grey,
but I like the black too.
