Quoted from Rum-Z:Here's a maintenance alert for anyone with a Premium or LE that uses the captive ball block
I highly recommend https://www.pinballlife.com/stern-newton-ball-assembly.html. Especially if you're gonna muck with the block at all.
I don't know why why used the block on the prem/le and used the newton ball on pros.
The LED version: has one pattern (LED dots!), great wide angle of visibility, and super vivid. Blacks are blacks! Unless they've gotten better, the color convergence of each "dot" is not great; I see edges of red, green that stand out instead of being nicely mixed in the LED package.
The LCD version: has multiple patterns (dots, dotsXL, line scans, others). The color converge is not a problem. However, the angle of viewing is less; as you step to the side you lose some vividness. Also, the blacks are really grays.

Given how subjective it is, I'd try and find local samples of both before making a decision.
