There are more than 4 versions. I had 2 s8000, not marked for version. Both stereo. These were the first version. One was 7591 based, preamp and drivers 12ax7. One 7868 with 12ax7 preamp and 6eu7 drivers. Mpx sections different. Also had a mk IV,7868 all preamp and drivers 6eu7.

The early versions had dc supply to the filaments of the preamp tubes. The mk IV used ac. The mk IV had a stereo indicator light and tuning meter rather than eye tube.

Sold them due to downsizing.Liked them all.
