the guy says the woofers are shot...foam most likely.

Anyone recognize the pieces?

soryy, DJ. The pix are off a C-list ad. Was hope the ceramic driver with the red would strike a chord somewhere.
 
classic super tweeters, as sold by radioshack. fostex I think. nice, very very high frequency output (up to 35 or 40k or so I think).

what are those mids, 5" across? or smaller? if 5", and if open backed (if open backed I hope theyr'e in a sub enclosure!) then they might be foster culver 50X0X drivers, as used in the mirage 750 but without the cone treatment mirage did to the drivers they used. the woofer I don't know about. but I'm thinking it's all foster/fostex/culver stuff (same company, 3 different names).

The black horn tweeter with the large phase plug was sold at radio shack in the late 70's. It was made by foster/fostex and, If I remember correctly, was more of a super tweeter than a tweeter and it required a high crossover point. Check the online RS catalog from about 1977 or so and you should find it. And yes, the silver super tweeter was also a Foster/Fostex/RS product and is from the same vintage. Hope this helps, Andrew.
