Got these at my local thrift for about $5. The weight told me they were worth having, the brown speaker cloth made me think Norman's and the clear poly woofers made me think Infinity. No markings anywhere and I haven't found the EIA codes for the 6-1/2" woofers yet. The Tweeters are Vifa D20td-0506.

Madisound Sledgeling kit, first version. Here's a page where a guy goes into a lot of detail on a later model version (same sonics, cosmetic changes):

Those 6102 woofers are no joke. Very nice woofers. Very flat response. "1056" code on them means made by Gefco, which was correct at that time (IIRC, they later shifted woofer production over to Misco, but they were essentially still the same woofer, just with cosmetic differences like cone color and such).

Gordon.
 
For a DIY kit, they were very well thought out and yes, that 6102 woofer made its way into a LOT of homebuilt speakers - neutral and very decent bass response. I used them in a set I built for a friend along with the Peerless wide angle domes and they were solid. Well worth the effort to resurrect.
 
Yes, they were VERY well done. Here's a page with graphs on the Sledgeling. Notice that it's flat +-2.5dB from 300-15K. And only +- about 3dB from 300-20K.

Definitely Madisound woofers. Those 6102 will never die. Well worth the investment.
