I've had that model, and it's HEAVY. That's the only RCA (newer than the late 1949s) console that I've seen with a real, solid wood cabinet. Not laminated veneer, but a 3/4" thick slab of wood on top. It was definitely a high-end flagship model.

*Thanks Andy for clarifying on the 44 vs 40... I couldn't remember which chassis mine had. It was indeed a 23V.
