I thought you might like to know that a density_map isn't necessary here--just a
color_map. (But both of them work, of course.) I was confused about that as
well, for a long time. A density_map is really for listing multiple density
blocks, rather than just colors.

I also noticed that you had a second density in each
sphere...spherical{density}...without a color_map.  I guess you wanted that on
purpose, but all it is doing is adding media brightness (no color) to your
sphere. (It is using a default color_map, which I think is just black to
white--or in the case of media, it represents 'no' media to 'full' media.) You
could eliminate those extra densities, to get richer colors.
