Another what are these speakers

Saw these for sale not far from me. Anyone recognize these cabinets?

Heathkit AE-40 cabinets, they would have been paired with a matching center console.

Hey, thanks! If I had the room for them I would check them out. The speaker terminals look to have been replaced. Hopefully someone didn't "upgrade" them with big cheap sub woofers.

Hope you got some nice drivers in there. I like the look.

Good eye I noticed that too and here's hoping that whatever is in them are still original

Could be some Altec or similar goodness hidden inside. Plus they can be refurbished to look really good with small effort.

@macyjrm makes a good point about possible Altecs however there were others
