The Fisher price is beyond my pocketbook, but I love the style of it.
Reminiscent of Motorola's Drexel modern.
The Zenith is no slouch either, in style.
I really like the Zenith control panel on these.

Re: Fisher Ambassador Console and Zenith Console
Mogul that's one of FIsher's more BOL efforts, a '62 or '63 Ambassador IV or V. Decent unit, usually separate 6BQ5 PP amp and lots of Tele 12AX7s in the separate tuner/preamp w/ MPX. Too much for what it is, but a popular style for furniture nowadays. Usually EA or FP styles go cheaper.
That Zenith has lousy stereo unless it has a missing outboard speaker, no point in even calling that a stereo really.

Re: Fisher Ambassador Console and Zenith Console
It might be a BOL style, but that cabinet is more cleanly styled than is typical for Fisher. Many of their cabinets look more like a dresser than a stereo. A particularly obnoxious style was featured on the home page of Vintage, if you recall. That cabinet was hideous.
Life can be tough. It can be even tougher if you're stupid.....
Re: Fisher Ambassador Console and Zenith Console
Fisher almost alway had a nice MCM version of each model, as they always had 5 to 6 designs for every model, every year.
In the past we had very nice MCM versions of 1960-'62 President and Executive.
