As for the CTC-5 Super model having an inferior color decoding, yes, it does... compared to the Deluxe. But really that's the only reason it deserves to get picked on, because it was the FIRST production chassis to use the lower-rez color decoding, and because there was also a 'deluxe' model in the same cabinet that still had the better decoding. Other than that, what's the big deal, it's the same, not-quite-as-good, non-I&Q decoding that was used for years and years on all the color sets after that. Like two twin brothers and one has a little bit bigger nose than the other, now everybody's gonna call that one "bignose"!
Plus though it seems to get singled out as a dog when in fact it used THE system that was adopted by everybody after that, so if it's a dog, so are all the other color sets and CTCs after it! And it's not like the difference is striking anyway, I bet people watching a CTC5 and a CTC4 next to each other would have a hard time distinguishing them apart if they weren't told they were different beforehand. I love mine by the way...Frenchy
