JBL Speakers - What are these?

Picked a pair of these up at a yard sale. Not sure what JBL speakers they are. The only identifying mark is on the crossovers and they say 4321 which isn't a speaker model that I know of. Any ideas?

These were posted in the last few weeks, I forget the model, but don't touch the screen on the tweeter per that last post.
 
I'm looking at how the cabinet is constructed. It's terminated in an odd way at the bottom and there is ring around the port. Not typical of JBL cabinets. JBL sold the components as a set and the cabinet looks re-purposed or diy.
 
That's kind of what I was thinking. Maybe a kit or something. Is the 4321 identifier just for the crossover?
 
The tweeters are LE-20. One cab has an LE14A woofer and the other some junky Magnavox woofer that's loose in the cab. I guess someone was trying to replace the LE14A, since the surrounds had either rotted or solidified, with the Magnavox they probably scavenged from a console.

The crossovers are LEX3. Interesting stuff.
 
Of wait..it just clicked in my head. The 4321 is an adjustment identifier on the crossover. Duh. I just kept thinking it was a model number since it was so close to the other JBL model numbers.

With one exception these components were sold individually and could be grouped in a make-your-own cabinet. The S-12 kit included this woofer, this tweeter but a LX8 xover.
