I do benlieve that many Horizons were shipped without
the wood covers.
The were intended for rack mount aplications.
At the point I looked at buying a Horizon the wood cover was an extra charge unless you
got it with a
home office package deal.
Taking the topic of wood cases even further off topic, anyone see any nice bookcase style
"AV" computer
cases? I am looking for one in wood or wrapped in wood with good ventilation. I can not
be the only
person who wants something that looks like it belongs on a shelf next to an old Marantz or
Akai and not
look out of place. My other choice is to push the stack of monochrome yet shiney Component
back into
the shadows or behind doors with just their IR's showing. In my most recient surf on
the subject I came
across a wood cased computer that has caused me to rethink the whole idea :)
