Another time to play... what's... that... speaker! (ID rqst from pics)

Okay. These popped up recently. They appear to be older than what I've dealt with previously and are completely foreign to me. Listed as 'antique speakers', they kinda look like some form of PA speakers with built-in tube amps? Maybe??

Anyone take a guess?

Hammond tone cabinets.

Organ speakers but that looks like some hefty iron in the tube amp!

Thanks. Not too far off from what I was guessing, but I never would have come up with organ speakers (let alone 'tone cabinets') on my own. Anyway, I let the guy know what he had and even though they were offered at a bargain price, they really look too big for me taking on another project or to flip. Even transporting and storing 3 of them just temporarily would be a bit of an undertaking.

Whoever harvested ALL of the tubes knew the value of the iron and speakers.
