In my long search for the original cabinet for my Beosystem 8000 I went looking in my early 80s collection of B&O brochures and catalogues
it seems that there were 2 models: the SC 80 with the "wings" covered and the SC 80/2 with a "cleaner" look in that the job of supporting the upper layer was brilliantly executed by "S" shaped steel/aluminium wings.
Am I correct or the SC 80/2 was specifically for the US markets since I see it in one of my preferred brochures for the Beosystem 8000 for the US market
