That's just an old cabinet with the doors missing, I used to use it to hold books and records, but I thought it would be a good place to keep radios and tvs. I keep the radios down low now. Although on the top (not seen in the picture) I have a bunch of VHS tapes that keep getting knocked down

That's one of the very few system-3 era Zeniths I wouldn't mind having. But I've never seen even one. In comparison, I've seen loads of those ones in the silver plastic curved cabinet which I don't think looks nearly as nice.

I think the Avante would look nicer with finished wood on the sides and a black base than painted black on the sides with a white base, but then I like them the way they came white with the white base.
