Interesting you should mention the speaker doors. There was another model almost identical to the Northampton called the Hillsdale model 9t77 and the only difference I can see is in the cabinet. The Northampton has speaker doors and the Hillsdale does not. The Hillsdale was $389 and the Northampton was $425.
I found this Life Magazine add for RCA sets
