Often imitated, never duplicated. Believe it or not, the Avanti style might have been copped from RCA's revolutionary 2000 made in 1969. Except for the sliding doors and twin speakers on the RCA, the cabinet is the same idea. White floating pedestal, wood top. Zenith added a sloping front for extra interest.
