Help me remember a 1980s TV...

I was wanting to find a picture of a certain 1980s TV. I know it's been posted here before, but I can't find it. Anyhow, here's it's identifying qualities:

-Console TV, probably 27" or so
-Huge, front-facing stereo speakers on the sides, with transparent black grille cloth and chrome dustcaps on the speakers. Probably 6" or 8" woofers.
-I believe it was a TOTL model from one of the big names, maybe a Zenith?
-Very "80s" looking

Seemed like somebody here posted about getting one a year or two ago. I thought I posted on the topic, but I couldn't find it. I described the TV every which way to google, and couldn't find it.

I know one of you guys has to know which model I am talking about, lol.

Sounds like the Zenith with the Bose sound system.

Here's the thread on it, but it was just a link to Ebay so no pictures.

Bose didnt come around til late 80's IIRC. It was only
on some "digital system 3" TOTL sets.

Dont remember & my latest catologue is 1982.
We sold a few, a very impressive set back then.
I think they were in the line 2 yrs. Trick is to find one
with good grills & SPKRS, the kids beat the crap out of them.
