Any idea who might have built such a beautiful cabinet? (With JBL Speaker System 030)

[UncleT]

Hi guys,
I recently purchased a pair of vintage speakers that I need help identifying. I've researched the components and determined I have the JBL Speaker System 030 (with D130, 075 and N2600), but I can not determine where this cabinet came from. Since I can't find anything similar historically through JBL I'm assuming the original owner bought the cabinet and speaker system separately.

I was looking for the port and realized the interior sides are slotted with an angled return to the front of the speaker. The wooden legs are a mismatched set that leads me to believe the original legs may have been metal.

Any insight would be appreciated.
Best,
Tracy

That would be my guess too as that was quite common back in the day.

The lining material is what was unigue to Bozak speakers from that period is one clue. But other wise I don't have a clue. I guess it could be a modified 305 cabinet with a new baffle, but thats to much work. Bozaks also came with a 3.5 inch base all around, not feet. Its not Barzilay for sure. Probably built by a good cabinet man or by owner himself.

Thank you for the welcome!

I'll check out the Bozaks and do a little more research.
